Introduction: The role of advanced imaging in diagnosing aseptic implant loosening following total hip arthroplasty (THA) remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in detecting aseptic loosening.
Methods: This was a retrospective review of 342 consecutive patients who underwent revision THA between July 2011 and April 2023 and had a pelvis MRI as part of the preoperative diagnostic evaluation.
