Thanks for the reply Steve! I appreciate the detailed responses.

Just the day after, I scanned this guy who they were querying a hernia on but he had right hip anterior pain that was radiating laterally and also down his leg.
I didn’t see any hernias but I saw a thickened joint capsule with hypoechoic fluid deep to the iliofemoral ligament. I thought the iliofemoral ligament itself appeared normal, as it did on the asymptomatic left side).
When I looked into the right labral area, there was lots of irregularity and 2 cystic spaces. I thought the cystic spaces could have been labral cysts so possibly an underlying labral tear? Do you think the images are typical for labral cysts or are they track more superficially into the muscle bellies as was seen in your hip webinar?

Also when the labrum area is that irregular, is it correct to label images as “labrum area” or could we use “acetabular area”. Or what would you use?

I have provided pics of the right hip, comparison with the left side and a cineloop of the right labrum area.

Thanks!
