MSCT of the Hip Joints
Hip‑joint MSCT is a high‑precision imaging method with layered scanning of bony and soft‑tissue structures in multiple projections. It provides detailed 3D views, assesses bones, cartilage and vessels, and helps evaluate fracture risk in osteoporosis. Both joints are examined for a complete clinical picture. The examination is performed on CT Philips Brilliance 64.
