Abstract
in English, German

Most cases of hip pain in adults are related to osteoarthrosis, thus other causes, e.g. inflammation, are often not adequately considered for the joint pain in the initial diagnosis. This review article describes the various rheumatic diseases of the hip in the context of diagnostic image interpretation. The advantages and disadvantages of the individual imaging modalities are discussed against the background of pathological findings of rheumatological diseases of the hip.

Die Osteoarthrose ist die häufigste Ursache für den Hüftschmerz des Erwachsenen. Daher wird anderen Ursachen wie z. B. Entzündungen weniger Beachtung für den Gelenkschmerz in der Erstdiagnose geschenkt. Dieser Artikel gibt eine Übersicht von unterschiedlichen rheumatologischen Erkrankungen der Hüfte und deren Interpretation in der Bildgebung. Die Vor- und Nachteile der einzelnen bildgebenden Verfahren werden anhand der pathologischen Befunde für die rheumatologischen Erkrankungen erläutert.

Keywords: Diagnosis; Hip pain; Inflammation; Magnetic resonance imaging; Synovitis.
