Do you think you have a hip labral tear? What tests work for labral tears? Have you been told that you have a labral tear? MRI and MRA are purportedly the best way to see if you have a hip labral tear (besides surgery).

In reality, MRI and MRA appear to have very high false positive rates, making the findings quite ambiguous. This means that the only way to see and confirm a labral tear is to actually go in and look at it arthroscopically!

However, based on the research, labral tears are very common in people with no symptoms...so if you can't actually see a connection between the images and symptoms, it may not be a great idea to rush in to cut anything! It also means it's basically impossible to tell whether hip pain is actually coming from a labral tear (since other studies show that hip injections don't work to identify labral tears either!).
