title: MR imaging of osseous lesions of the hip.
abstract: MR imaging, because of its multiplanar capability and superior soft tissue contrast resolution, is the preferred modality to assess osseous and soft tissue structures around the hip joint. This article reviews the clinical presentation, disease process, and imaging findings of important congenital and acquired osseous disorders of the pediatric and adult hip.
