Trial Design
2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Conventional ImagingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in this group allocation will receive conventional preoperative imaging (X-ray, CT, and MRI) only for the use of pre-operative and intra-operative planning for their hip arthroscopy (FAI) procedure.
Group II: 3D Print + Conventional imagingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in this group allocation will receive a 3D reconstruction of their hip in addition to conventional preoperative imaging (X-ray, CT, and MRI) only for the use of pre-operative and intra-operative planning for their hip arthroscopy (FAI) procedure.
