Ultrasound of the hip joints

Ultrasound of hip joints in Kyiv

What you need to know about hip ultrasound

Ultrasound of the hip joints is an examination in which a specialist can determine dysplasia, preluxation or dislocation of the hip. It is very important to detect these pathologies before the age of one, because if this is not done in the early stages and adequate treatment is not carried out, there is a significant risk of disability. With early diagnosis of pathologies of the hip joints in children under one year old, surgical intervention in the future can be avoided.
