Figure 2b. Coronal (a) and axial oblique (b) multi-planar reformatted CT images (inset in b shows the location of the section) show a normal left hip. An angled subtrochanteric approach (green strip) should be used for biopsy of lesions in the femoral neck or head. The greater trochanter bursa (outlined in red in a) and the hip joint capsule should be avoided. GM = gluteus maximus muscle, GMed = gluteus medius muscle, TFL = tensor fascia lata muscle, VL = vastus lateralis muscle.
