This is a 3D reconstruction from my recent CT scan. You can see how the femoral head does not sit normally in the socket. Also the white marking shows the part of the femoral neck that should not be there. It is this area that causes the impingement. The left hip is labeled, but the abnormalities exist in both hips. You cannot see the cartilage on the CT, the tear was diagnosed by MRI with gadolinium contrast.
