POSSIBILITIES OF DOPPLEROGRAPHY IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF DEGENERATIVE-DYSTROPHIC DESEASES OF THE HIPS
Our experience is based on 266 ultrasound examinations of the hips of the patients with different stages of deforming coxarthrosis, aseptic necrosis. The patients underwent a medical examination with color Doppler an assessment of hemodynamics in the lateral femoral circumf lex artery. The stage of coxarthrosis was determined with radiography. On the basis of the own testings we developed a normative criteria of blood f low in the circumf lex artery in normal hip and we described the features of blood f low violations during the degenerative-dystrophic process in the hip.
