[High-resolution nuclear spin tomography of the hip joint using a Helmholtz surface coil].
A specially constructed Helmholtz surface coil enables one to obtain high resolution nuclear tomograms of the hip. Anatomical structures which are clinically important and which can regularly be shown are described. A pilot study has been carried out on 16 patients and typical findings are described in necrosis of the femoral head, osteoarthritis and changes resulting from tumours in the region. Possible further applications are discussed.
