Summary

This study looks at a hip condition called FAI, where extra bone causes pain during movement. Researchers want to understand why some people with this bone shape have pain while others don't. They will study 99 men aged 21-35 using motion capture and X-rays to see how the spine and hip work together. The goal is to improve diagnosis and treatment by looking at the whole picture, not just the bone.
