The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of multidetector CT (MDCT) arthrography in the diagnosis of intra-articular hip pathology. A retrospective review of 96 patients who had undergone CT hip arthrography was performed. Data regarding the presence of a labral tear, paralabral cyst, chondral...
