Hip ultrasonography in clinical practice

Hip ultrasonography in clinical practice The current practice of hip ultrasonography for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is based on more than three decades of experience. During this time, professional medical organizations in the United States have addressed both the clinical practice and imaging aspects of early detection of DDH. Current evidence-based clinical practice recommendations come from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Consensus imaging recommendations come from the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, the American College of Radiology, Society for Pediatric Radiology and the Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound. In this review the author compares and contrasts the current guidelines and offers additional practice tips for those providing comprehensive hip ultrasound services to infants. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Pediatric Radiology Springer Journals

Abstract

The current practice of hip ultrasonography for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is based on more than three decades of experience. During this time, professional medical organizations in the United States have addressed both the clinical practice and imaging aspects of early detection of DDH. Current evidence-based clinical practice recommendations come from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Consensus imaging recommendations come from the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine, the American College of Radiology, Society for Pediatric Radiology and the Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound. In this review the author compares and contrasts the current guidelines and offers additional practice tips for those providing comprehensive hip ultrasound services to infants.
