Get the Hip joint NCCT with experienced radiologists at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, an NABL & NABH-accredited diagnostic centre that provides CT and Radiology examination services for the right hip joint and bone structure. NCCT Right Hip joint is a non-contrast CT scan that visualizes the femoral head, femoral neck, and acetabulum, and the joint space and surrounding pelvic and thigh bones. The right hip joint NCCT examination is indicated for evaluating right hip joint pain, suspected fracture, and traumatic injury to the hip joint, disorders of the hip joint, and degenerative joint disease assessment.
What is NCCT Right Hip Joint?
An NCCT Right Hip Joint is a specific type of CT scan that provides a comprehensive assessment of the right hip joint as well as the bones surrounding it. With this imaging technique, bones, particularly those in the hip joint, can be seen clearly in cross-section. This test is used to detect traumatic injury, fracture, degenerative changes, hip joint abnormalities, and other structural irregularities of the right hip.
Common Reasons for NCCT Right Hip Joint
Right Hip Pain
NCCT may be recommended when you have persistent or unexplained right hip pain and detailed evaluation of the bones and joint is needed.
Suspected Hip Fracture
CT scan may identify a fracture of the femoral head or neck, the acetabulum, or other bones of the pelvis around your right hip.
Trauma or Injury
A doctor may recommend the exam after a fall, or other trauma, accident, or injury to the right hip, such as during sports.
Difficulty in Hip Movement
NCCT can assist in evaluating structural bony abnormalities contributing to restricted or painful movement of the hip.
Suspected Bone Abnormality
It can be used to investigate abnormal changes to the bones around the hip, such as density or structural change.
Degenerative Hip Changes
CT can illustrate bony changes associated with osteoarthritis and other degenerative conditions affecting the hip joint.
Post-Traumatic Evaluation
NCCT may be used in the evaluation of potential healing, malposition, or residual bone abnormalities after an earlier injury and hip fracture.
Conditions Evaluated
Hip Fractures
Imaging of Fractures: NCCT can clearly depict fractures of the femoral head, femoral neck, acetabulum, and neighboring bones.
Joint Dislocation and Alignment
The examination can demonstrate the position and alignment of the hip joint and detect dislocation or other bony structural problems.
Osteoarthritis and Degenerative Changes
CT images can show the presence of changes in joint space, bone remodelling, osteophytes, sclerosis, and other bony features characteristic of degenerative changes of the hip.
Bone Lesions
Abnormal areas within the bones around the hip can be assessed for their location, extent, and structural characteristics.
Acetabular Abnormalities
CT can evaluate acetabular fractures, developmental abnormalities (such as dysplasia), and other bony abnormalities.
Femoral Head and Neck Abnormalities
NCCT provides a good view of the femoral head and neck and can be used to rule out fracture or other abnormalities.
Complex Bone Injuries
A CT helps assess complex or multiple fracture configurations and their relationship to the hip joint.
Post-Surgical and Post-Traumatic Changes
The examination can aid in assessing bony alignment and structural changes after surgery or previous trauma.

Bring previous CT scans, X-rays, MRI scans, ultrasound reports, or other relevant medical records if available.
Remove jewellery, belts, or other unnecessary metallic objects before the examination.
Wear comfortable clothing and follow the positioning instructions provided by the radiology team.
Inform the staff if you have severe right hip pain or difficulty maintaining the required position.
Keep the right hip and lower body as still as possible during scanning to reduce motion-related image degradation.
Follow any additional instructions provided by the radiology team based on your clinical condition.
इस जांच से पहले सामान्यतः खाली पेट रहने की आवश्यकता नहीं होती।
दाएं कूल्हे, श्रोणि या ऊपरी पैर में पहले हुई किसी शल्य चिकित्सा, हड्डी टूटने, जोड़ खिसकने, चोट या अन्य उपचार के बारे में चिकित्साकर्मी को बताएं।
यदि कूल्हे या श्रोणि के आसपास धातु की प्लेट, पेंच, हड्डी को स्थिर रखने वाला उपकरण या कोई अन्य चिकित्सकीय उपकरण लगा है, तो इसकी जानकारी दें।
यदि आप गर्भवती हैं या गर्भधारण की योजना बना रही हैं, तो जांच से पहले चिकित्साकर्मी को बताएं, क्योंकि इस जांच में विकिरण का उपयोग होता है।
अपनी वर्तमान दवाओं और अन्य महत्वपूर्ण स्वास्थ्य संबंधी जानकारी के बारे में चिकित्साकर्मी को बताएं।
यदि पहले की कोई संगणित टोमोग्राफी, एक्स-रे, चुंबकीय अनुनाद जांच, अल्ट्रासाउंड या अन्य संबंधित जांच की रिपोर्ट उपलब्ध हो, तो उसे साथ लाएं।
जांच से पहले आभूषण, कमर की धातु वाली पट्टी और अन्य अनावश्यक धातु की वस्तुएं हटा दें।
आरामदायक कपड़े पहनें और चिकित्साकर्मी द्वारा बताई गई स्थिति में शरीर को रखें।
यदि दाएं कूल्हे में बहुत अधिक दर्द है या एक ही स्थिति में रहना कठिन है, तो पहले ही चिकित्साकर्मी को बताएं।
जांच के दौरान दाएं कूल्हे और शरीर के निचले हिस्से को यथासंभव स्थिर रखें।
अपनी स्वास्थ्य स्थिति के अनुसार चिकित्साकर्मी द्वारा दिए गए अन्य निर्देशों का पालन करें।
The radiology team reviews the clinical history, symptoms, previous investigations, and indication for the NCCT Right Hip Joint.
The patient is positioned appropriately on the CT table with the right hip aligned according to the examination protocol.
A non-contrast CT scan is performed using thin-section imaging of the right hip.
Images are obtained to evaluate the femoral head, femoral neck, acetabulum, joint space, proximal femur, and surrounding pelvic and bony structures.
The examination can demonstrate fractures, fracture fragments, dislocation, joint alignment abnormalities, degenerative bony changes, bone lesions, deformities, and other structural abnormalities.
Multiplanar and, when required, three-dimensional image reconstructions may be generated for detailed assessment of complex anatomy and fracture patterns.
No intravenous contrast material is used for a standard NCCT examination.
The patient should remain still during image acquisition to reduce motion-related image degradation.
CT uses ionising radiation, and the examination is performed using an appropriate imaging protocol with radiation-safety measures.
The acquired images are reviewed and interpreted by a qualified radiologist in correlation with the clinical information and available previous investigations.
