Ultrasound study of muscle changes in professional dancers

This study helps doctors make better decisions about treating femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS)—a hip condition where bone shapes prevent normal movement. Researchers will use imaging and movement tests to understand which patients benefit most from physical therapy or other treatments.

This study compares hip positioning (acetabular angle) with pelvic tilt in people with femoro-acetabular impingement and in healthy volunteers. It may help researchers better understand hip mechanics and how they relate to symptoms and planning for arthroscopy surgery.

This study looks at how common hip and groin injuries are in competitive athletes during their sports season, and how best to manage them. If you are an active athlete with hip impingement (FAI), you may be able to join and help improve care for athletes like you.

This study measures how your hip moves (the “mechanics”) using clinical exams and imaging. It may help researchers understand hip movement problems in femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) before major joint damage develops.

This study compares two imaging methods, MRI and ultrasound, to see how well they measure muscle health. It may help find better ways to monitor muscle conditions without invasive tests.

This study follows people before and after hip arthroscopy to treat femoroacetabular impingement (a condition where the hip bones pinch together). It measures strength, mobility, and daily function to see how recovery progresses over 6 months.
