| Diagnosis of Arthritis of the Hip |
|
|
| The diagnosis of a degenerative hip starts with a complete history and physical examination by your doctor. X-rays will be required to determine the extent of the degenerative process and suggest a cause for the degeneration. Other tests may be required if there is reason to believe that other conditions are contributing to the degenerative process. MRI scanning may be necessary to determine whether avascular necrosis is causing your hip condition. Blood tests may be required to rule out systemic arthritis or infection in the hip. |
