Abstract

A 54-year-old woman presented with progressive right hip pain after hip arthroplasty 9 years earlier. The emerging role of metal artifact reduction MRI in the noninvasive diagnosis of infectious synovitis as the surrogate marker for periprosthetic hip joint infection and differentiation from other synovitis types is discussed.
