“…AD is an abnormality of the hip joint consisting of an abnormal relationship between the femoral head and acetabulum. The dysplastic acetabulum is shallow and steeply oriented [5]. FAI is the collision between parts of the femoral head and acetabular rim.…”

“…Alongside visual analysis of the imaging appearances, a number of key radiographic measurements are used in the evaluation of hip anatomy and the diagnosis of hip joint disorders [13,14]. Examples include centre-edge angle (CEA), acetabular index (AI), and joint space width (JSW) that are used to demonstrate AD [5,15]. CEA is the most useful indicator of hip dysplasia, and it is the degree of lateral femoral head coverage in the frontal plane [16].…”

Aim: Pelvic radiography is used for the identification of hip joint changes, including pathologies such as osteoarthritis. Several studies have recommended that the position for this radiological procedure should be standing, not supine, to reflect the functional appearances of the hip joint. The aim of this review was to evaluate pelvis radiography positioning with respect to the image appearances and information provided for clinical decision-making. Aside from this, potential recommendations to the radiographic technique for an erect pelvis projection will be considered. Method: A literature search was performed using databases/abstract systems (ScienceDirect, Web of Science, PubMed, and MEDLINE). Only articles written in English were included. Results: Twenty-five articles were identified. Findings from the review describe the effect of repositioning from supine to erect on a series of specific hip measurements. These include pelvic tilt, joint space width, and the acetabular component.
