IB Lab HIPPO

ImageBiopsy Lab

HIPPO supports the objective and standardized measurement of the most important hip angles based on digital x-rays. These include, for example, the CCD and LCE angles as well as numerous other relevant angles for the diagnosis of hip disease including hip arthritis and hip dysplasia.
