hip replacement

Enlarge picture
The prosthetic ball-joint to be used in a hip replacement operation is checked for size and shape against an X-ray of the patient's hip joint. Such a check not only ensures accurate fit, but gives the surgeon an indication of how much filing and reaming of existing bone material will be necessary during the operation.

Operation to replace a damaged hip joint; a form of arthroplasty.
