SECTION 1 – QUIZ

A 54-year-old female complained of right anterior hip pain for half a year. She described that the pain aggravated after walking for 20 min. She denied limitation of hip range of motion. No muscle weakness was noticed over her right lower extremity. The ultrasound images were obtained from the short- [Figure 1a] and long-axis [Figure 1b] view of her right anterior hip. What is your impression?
