This document describes the anatomy of the hip joint, including the ball-and-socket configuration of the femoral head articulating with the acetabulum. It further discusses hip dysplasia, noting that it results from an abnormal developmental relationship between the femur and acetabulum. Risk factors for hip dysplasia include genetic and intrauterine environmental factors. Ultrasound is useful for evaluating the hip joint before ossification occurs, using static and dynamic techniques to assess morphology and stability.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Developmental dysplasia of hip
1.
2.
3.
4. • A multiaxial synovial joint of ball-and-socket type
• Femoral head articulates with the
cupshaped acetabulum
• Acetabular fossa forms the
central floor-rough and non
articular
• Femoral head is covered by
articular cartilage, except for a
rough pit for the ligamentum
teres
5. • Approximately hemispherical cavity central on the lateral
aspect of the innominate bone
• Faces antero-inferiorly
• Deficient inferiorly at the
acetabular notch
• Starts to ossify at 12 yrs
• Fuses at 18 -25 years
Os acetabuli : unfused 2
ossification centres of
the acetabulum
6. • Acetabular depth is increased by the acetabular labrum which
deepens the cup
• Transverse acetabular ligament bridges the acetabular notch
8. • Aka ligament of Bigelow
• Very strong and shaped like an inverted y, lying anteriorly and
intimately blended with the capsule
• Apex is attached between the anterior inferior iliac spine &
acetabular rim and base to the intertrochanteric line
9. • Triangular, its base attaching to the iliopubic eminence,
superior pubic ramus, obturator crest and obturator
membrane.
• It blends distally with the capsule and deep surface of the
medial iliofemoral ligament..
10. • Thickens the back of the capsule and consists of three distinct
parts:- 1) Central 2) Medial 3) Lateral
11. • Triangular, flattened band
• APEX: attached anterosuperiorly in the fovea on femoral head
• BASE: attached on both sides of the acetabular notch
between which it blends with the transverse ligament
• Ensheathed by synovial membrane
12.
13. • Hip dysplasia is a result of abnormal development of the hip
when the relationship between femur, and acetabulum is
disrupted
• Formerly known as congenital dislocation of the hip joint
–term changed since DDH is a developmental process and is
not always detectable at birth.
14. • Multifactorial – genetic + intrauterine environmental factors
• Usually unilateral (80% of the time), occurs more frequently
in the left hip – since the left hip of the fetus usually lies
posteriorly against the mother’s L-spine, limiting abduction
15. • Native-Americans
• Family history (more in first degree relatives)
• Females (4 to 8 times more common)
• Breech delivery (extreme flexion at hip stretching of
capsule & ligaments Dysplasia)
• Oligohydramnios
• First born
• Persistent hip asymmetry
16. After last menstrual period in fetal development:
• 12 weeks – lower limb rotates medially after hip joint arises
at 7-11 wks – dysplasias are teratologic
• 18 weeks – hip muscle development – dysplasias d/t
neuromuscular disorders
• B/w perinatal period and 1st few weeks of birth – femoral
head grows faster than acetabulum, minimal coverage of
head – dysplasias d/t mechanical factors - oligohydramnios,
breech position
• Postnatal period – labral growth more rapid (more coverage
of femoral head) – dysplasias tend to be due to functional
factors instead – increased estrogens causing ligamentous
laxity, swaddling
17. • Loss of tight fit between acetabulum and femoral head in
the hip may result in dysplasia or dislocation
• Findings – shallow acetabulum with femoral anteversion
femoral neck version : angle of the femoral neck relative to the pelvic
horizontal (interischial line), with a normal range of 5-25 degrees of
anteversion
femoral neck torsion : angle between the femoral neck and posterior
condylar axis of the distal femur, with a normal range of 10-20 degrees
of antetorsion
25. • Ortolani’s (reduction) and
Barlow’s (dislocation) maneuver
• Shortened leg (6-8 wks of age)
• Asymmetry of thigh folds (rare)
26. • Ortolani’s (reduction) and
Barlow’s (dislocation) maneuver
• Shortened leg (6-8 wks of age)
• Asymmetry of thigh folds (rare)
• Galeazzi’s/Allis sign (6-8 wks) -
affected knee is lower with
knees bent in supine position –
seen in unilateral DDH
27. MODALITY AGE OR INDICATION

28.
29. • Advantages - visualizes the nonossified cartilage of the
femoral epiphyses and the cartilaginous labrum
- permits dynamic assessment of stability
• Disadvantage - cannot be used > 12 months d/t acoustic
shadowing from developing ossification center of epiphysis
• Sonographic features to be noted include :
a. Femoral head - Position, coverage & change in position with stress
b. Assessment of acetabular dysplasia
c. Acetabular roof - horizontal or inclined
d. Acetabular edge - sharp, rounded or flattened
e. Labrum - everted or inverted
f. Acetabular fossa - +/- interposed soft tissues such as excessive fat or
hypertrophied ligamentum teres
30. Two methods –
Static (Graf method) assessment with hip at rest
• emphasizes morphology and classifies the status of the hip
on the basis of angular measurements of the acetabulum
Dynamic (Harcke method) assessment with hip under stress
• consists of a multipositional evaluation that resembles the
physical examination
31. • Done in Coronal view
• Infant lies supine or in the
lateral decubitus position
with feet toward the
sonographer
• When examining the left hip
the sonographer grasps the
infant’s left leg with left
hand and transducer is held
in the right hand & vice versa
• To get coronal view – the transducer is placed in coronal
orientation over the lateral aspect of the hip
32. • Transducer is positioned over greater trochanter and held
parallel to the table showing maximum depth of acetabulum
• Cardinal landmarks - 1) inferior edge of the ilium
2) lateral margin of ilium projected as horizontal line 3) acetabular labrum
[“ball on spoon” appearance, with the femoral head representing the ball, the
acetabulum, the bowl of the spoon and the ilium the handle of the spoon]
• False positive - when transducer is rotated anteriorly
• False negative - when transducer is rotated posteriorly
• Proper coronal view –
(a) echoes from bony ilium should be in a straight line parallel to transducer
(b) transition between ilium & triradiate cartilage should be seen definitively
(c) echogenic tip of the labrum should be in the same plane as the other two
34. Alpha (α) and Beta (β) angles
• Baseline : drawn along the straight lateral margin of the ilium
• Inclination line : connects osseous convexity to labrum
• Roof line : connects lower edge of acetabular roof medially to
osseous convexity
35. Alpha (α) angle
• Angle between Base line & Roof line
• denotes inclination of acetabulum
• Small alpha indicates a shallow bony acetabulum
; Normally > 60
36. Beta (β) angle
• Angle between Baseline & Inclination line
• Normally < 55
• Large β angle indicates lateral migration of femoral head

40. Pulvinar (P) = fibrofatty tissue b/w acetabulum and femoral head, more
evident in DDH d/t femoral head not pressing against it in the acetabulum
41. • This technique incorporates motion and stress maneuvers
that are based on accepted clinical examination techniques
• The multiview dynamic assessment emphasizes hip position
and stability, but it also includes an assessment of
acetabular development.
• With the dynamic method, an attempt is made to visualize
the Barlow and Ortolani maneuvers on the ultrasonography
screen.
• The technique is dependent on ligamentous or capsular
laxity, and, as with the physical examination, the study
quality depends on the operator performing the stress test
42. Normal Hip
• In the first few
week of life, the
femoral head is
reduced in the
acetabulum at
rest, but it may
show slight
displacement
under stress
• This should
resolve by the
time infant is
four weeks of age
Subluxation
• Displacement of
the head from the
acetabulum
• However, the
head is not
completely
dislocated
Dislocation
• The femoral head
is completely
dislocated
• Fibro-fatty tissue
with increased
echogenic
properties fills
the space
between the
head and the
acetabulum.
43. • The lateral approach for ultrasonography has been the most
widely accepted.
• Four basic lateral views are described –
– Coronal – neutral
– Coronal – flexion
– Transverse - neutral
– Transverse – flexion
• Neutral: The femoral shaft is in the position of rest, usually
15-20 degrees of hip flexion.
• Flexed: The femoral shaft is flexed 90 degrees at the hip
44. • The dynamic technique is performed with the infant in both
the lateral decubitus and the supine position, and imaging is
carried out in the coronal and transverse planes both with
and without stress
• At a minimum, the examination should consist of two
orthogonal views with one obtained during a stress
maneuver
45. TRANSVERSE FLEXION
• The hip and knee are flexed
90 and the ultrasound
transducer is placed
perpendicular to the lateral
aspect of the infants hip
• With the hip in this
position of flexion and
adduction, a posterior push
is analogous to the Barlow
test
46. : normally the femoral head (H)
remains in contact with the ischium (IS) during movement.
TRANSVERSE FLEXION
AC-acetabular cartilage; G-gluteus muscle; GT-greater trochanter; H-cartilaginous
femoral head; C-Capsule; FS-femoral shaft; IS-ischium; IL-ilium; L-labrum; LT/P-
Ligamentum teres / pulvinar complex; M-femoral metaphysis; Tr-triradiate cartilage
47. With instability and
displacement: the femoral
head moves laterally and
posteriorly. The laterally
displaced head (F, open
arrows) has no contact with
the ischium (solid arrows).
Fibrofatty tissue (T) with
increased echogenicity fills the
acetabulum.
TRANSVERSE FLEXION
54. • Avascular necrosis of femoral head is common complication
of DDH treatment devices
• Doppler ultrasound is used to assess the vascularity of
femoral head during treatment
• Normal hip show a radial pattern of flow from the center of
the unossified head

• Refined CE Angle of Ogata
• Vertical-center-anterior margin (VCA) angle
• Femoral Head-Neck-Shaft Angle
69. Acetabular angle
• In adult, triradiate cartilages
are fused and therefore
inapparent, thus inferior
margin of the pelvic tear
drop is used instead.
• Pelvic tear drop (aka U-
figure) results from the the
end-on projection of a bony
ridge running along the
floor of the acetabular fossa
70. Acetabular angle
• In adult, it is measured as
Angle formed between a
horizontal line and a line
from the teardrop to lateral
acetabulum.
• Normal - 33 to 38
• > 47 - dysplasia
• 39 to 46 - indeterminate
72. Acetabular Index
• Aka Tonnis angle
• Measures the weight bearing surface of the acetabulum or
sourcil.
• The sourcil represents an area of subchondral osseous
condensation in the acetabular roof, which is a response
by the articular portion of the ilium to the stress provoked
by the compressive forces acting on it
73. Acetabular Index
• This angle is formed
between a horizontal
line and a tangential
line extending from the
medial to lateral edges
of the sourcil

Refined (CE) angle of Ogata
79. Vertical-center-anterior margin (VCA) angle
• Aka anterior-center-edge angle
• Evaluates anterior coverage of
the femoral head by the
acetabulum
• Measured on a lateral or “false-
profile” view of the hip
• Obtained with patient in
standing position, affected hip
against the cassette and pelvis
rotated 65; The foot on affected
side should be parallel to the
cassette; beam is centered on
the femoral head
80. Vertical-center-anterior margin (VCA) angle
• Measured as the angle
formed between a vertical
line through the center of
the femoral head and a line
tangential to the anterior
margin of the acetabular roof
• Normal > 25°
• < 20° is diagnostic of hip
dysplasia.
• 20°-25° - borderline dysplasia
81. Femoral Head-Neck-Shaft Angle
• Aka caput collum
diaphysis (CCD) angle
• Measured at the
intersection of the
femoral neck axis
with the long axis of
the femoral shaft
• Normal 120° to 135°
82. Femoral Head-Neck-Shaft Angle
• Aka caput collum
diaphysis (CCD) angle
• Measured at the
intersection of the
femoral neck axis
with the long axis of
the femoral shaft
• Normal 120° to 135°

femoral neck axis
with the long axis of
the femoral shaft
• Normal 120° to 135°
• > 135° - coxa valga
• < 120° - coxa vara
84. Delta angle
• Used to quantify the position of the fovea capitis along
the femoral head
• The abnormal superior position of the fovea capitis, also
known as ‘Fovea alta’, is regarded as a potential
radiographic diagnostic marker of dysplastic hip
85. Delta angle
• The delta angle is formed
between the lines drawn
from the center of the
femoral head to the
medial edge of the sourcil
and to the superior edge
of the fovea capitis
• Normal > 10°
86. Delta angle

• Fovea alta ≤ 10°
88.
89. • In children, most commonly used to document reduction
if child is placed in spica cast
• Can be performed preoperatively in the older child in
severe cases to help the surgeon in planning treatment
procedures
• In adults, CT is useful for characterizing hip dysplasia to
anterior, posterior, or global deficiency
• In addition, can be used to measure and confirm
correlates of radiographic center-edge angle, vertical-
center-anterior margin, and acetabular index
90. Measurements of Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip
• Anterior acetabular sector angle (AASA)
• Posterior acetabular sector angle (PASA)
• Horizontal acetabular sector angle (HASA)
Values are measured on axial CT one cut above greater
trochanters
91. • Created by drawing lines through centers of femoral heads
and line tangential to anterior lip of acetabulum
• Normal > 50°
Anterior acetabular sector angle (AASA)
92. • Created by drawing lines through centers of femoral heads
and line tangential to posterior lip of acetabulum
• Normal > 90°
Posterior acetabular sector angle (PASA)
93. • Created by drawing lines from anterior lip of acetabulum
through center of femoral head and posterior lip of acetabulum
• Normal > 140°
Horizontal acetabular sector angle (HASA)
96. • Reserved for difficult cases
• Major advantage : can delineate soft-tissue structures as
well as osseous structures without ionizing radiation
• Many MRI studies are ordered in the postoperative
period, usually after reduction and spica cast placement

98. Axial T1-weighted images show interval reduction of right hip with mild
persistent posterior subluxation. Acetabulum is shallow. Compared with
normal left side (solid arrow, B), right femoral head ossification is
delayed (long solid arrow, A). Anterior labrum is mildly inverted (short
solid arrow, A). Significant pulvinar hypertrophy (dotted arrow, A).

Editor's Notes
The triradiate cartilage is the 'Y'-shaped epiphyseal plate between the ilium, ischium and pubis to form the acetabulum of the os coxae
There are several variations and
modifications of this technique10,20,38,74,96. It is possible to
reduce the extent of the examination yet theoretically to
obtain the same information
It should be remembered that four to six millimeters of subluxation is normal during the first few days of life. Not all infants become normal so continued observation is required
ARROWHEAD IS TRIRADIATE CARTILAGE
Central collection of vessels is the precursor of the ossification center and is seen before the center is apparent on radiograph
