Hip CT measurements

00:00 - Intro
01:30 - Acetabular Version measurement
04:42 - Femoral Version measurement
08:07 - Alpha Angle measurement
This video shows you how I make the following measurements on a pelvis CT:
Acetabular version or anteversion angle
* triradiate cartilage present (open physis): 14° ± 4°
* triradiate absent (closed physis): 19° ± 4°
* smaller values may indicate acetabular retroversion
Femoral anteversion
* 30-40° at birth, and about 15° by adulthood.
Femoroacetabular alpha angle
* Abnormal if more than 55 - 60 degrees
* Abnormally high values may indicate femeroacetabular impingement (FAI), cam morphology.
