Precision and Accuracy of Identification of Anatomical Surface Landmarks by 30 Expert Hip Arthroscopists.
Abstract: We conducted a study to assess 30 expert hip arthroscopists' ability to identify common surface landmarks used during hip arthroscopy. Thirty hip arthroscopists independently performed a blinded examination of an awake supine human volunteer for identification of 5 surface landmarks: anterior superior iliac spine (ASIS), tip of greater trochanter (GT), rectus origin (RO), superficial inguinal ring (SIR), and psoas tendon (PT).
