Abstract
This article reviews contemporary evaluation of hip prostheses, emphasizing both the accepted use of conventional radiographs, arthrograms, and scintigraphy, as well as the evolving use of CT and MR imaging in evaluating suspected complications. Developments in CT postprocessing and MR pulse sequence design now allow successful imaging of soft tissues adjacent to hardware components.
