Summary

One of the leading causes of hip arthritis is femoro-acetabular impingement which means the hip joint is deformed such that the hip joint jams in the front when the hip is bent all the way forward. This can lead to significant damage to the hip joint and may result in the need for a total hip replacement. However, if detected early, this deformity can be treated surgically by reshaping the hip joint. If the hip joint could be better visualized before surgery, then surgeons would be able to develop less invasive surgical techniques to correct this deformity.
