observational

Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluation of the indications on the referral based on current study data to detect, if the referral was useful and the decision of the procedure (MRI or MRA) was taken correctly. Analysis of the findings, if the question of the referrer was answered. Estimation of the costs caused by unnecessary examinations in the study collective and extrapolation on the German healthcare system.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The present MRI will be surveyed again. If there is also an arthroscopy report of the hip present, we compare the findings (original report and our review) of the images and the surgery.
