title: Digital subtraction arthrography of hip joint prostheses.
abstract: Digital subtraction arthrography (DSA) was performed in 14 patients in the evaluation of painful hip prostheses. Information about component loosening seems to be as reliable as with conventional arthrography. The examination time is very short, and results are immediately available. Electronic image manipulation allows the examiner to produce optimal picture quality.
