Modified head-neck offset for diagnosing anterior femoro-acetabular impingement.

Purpose: The head-neck offset described by Eijer et al. (eHNO), which is used to diagnose anterior femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI), can be difficult to measure. The aim of this study was to verify if a modified head-neck offset (mHNO) provides more accurate and reproducible values than those of the eHNO.
