In this article, we will discuss the uses of CT Hip in detecting the Hip abnormalities. We will also discuss some common questions related to CT Hip.
Hip CT (computed tomography) scan is non-invasive radiological tool which uses X-rays for the detection of abnormalities in the Hip and surrounding area. CT Hip is used to look for various abnormalities like Hip injuries, Hip fractures, Hip infections, tumors, cancers, vessels and nerves of hip etc. CT uses X-rays to create the 3D images of Hip by taking picture though various angles and processed by computer. CT Hip give more detailed information than simple X-rays but is expensive than X-ray procedure.
What is Hip CT?
Hip CT (Computed Tomography) is the non invasive diagnostic technique which uses X-rays for the detection of Hip abnormalities. CT Hip can detect abnormalities like Hip injuries, Hip fractures, lumbar bone dislocations, Hip infections, blood vessel problems etc. CT uses X-rays and help to take the pictures from various angles with the help of computer and forms 3D pictures. CT Hip can be done with or without the use of contrast based on need and suggested by doctor.
What is Hip CT with contrast (CECT Hip)?
Hip CT with contrast also called contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) is the advanced level of CT which uses contrast material for the detection of abnormalities in the Hip. In the contrast Hip CT procedure, Iodine based material is used as contrast material and injected through IV for clear diagnostic images. Contrast material in Hip CT will help to enhance the picture quality of the Hip and give the detection of abnormalities.
What are the Uses of CT Hip?
There are various uses of CT Hip and some are given below:
- To look for Hip fractures
- To look for Hip injuries
- Used to look for tumors in hip
- To look for blood vessels of hip
- To look for nerves of hip
- Birth defects in hip
- Guide the treatment for hip
- To look for structural defects
Which tests are available in Ganesh Diagnostic for Hip abnormalities?
There are various tests available at Ganesh Diagnostic for the detection of Hip abnormalities and these include:
- MRI Hip (Book Now)
- NCCT Hip (Book Now)
- X-ray Hip (Book Now)

Conclusion
Hip (CT) computed tomography is the diagnostic tool used for the detection of Hip abnormalities. CT hip uses X-rays for the production of cross sectional images of hip joints and the surrounding areas. The procedure is also guided by computer and this helps to create the 3D images of the hip. There are various tests used for the detection of abnormalities and these are MRI, CT, PET CT, X-rays etc. CT can be done with or without the use of contrast material. Contrast material used in this procedure helps to provide clear images of the condition which helps in easy detection of hip abnormalities.
