Editorial Commentary: If You Can't See It, You Can't Treat It: Proper Hip Radiographic Views Are Critical.

Hip arthroscopy has become a common surgical treatment for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and hip labral tears. In addition to being a complex procedure with a steep learning curve, understanding the required imaging to provide a comprehensive view of femoral cam deformities can be challenging. Because of the 3-dimensional anatomy of the hip joint, 2-dimensional imaging with plain radiographs may miss areas of pathomorphology that are not in the plane of the specific radiographic view.
