About Analyze My Hip
The people responsible for this page
One operator stands behind Analyze My Hip: the independent group that also publishes JointLens, our umbrella product for patient-side imaging review. We are engineers, not a clinic, not a radiology group and not a device manufacturer. Everything published here — the viewer, the wording, the model choices — is our own work and our own responsibility, and we prefer to say so on a page you can find rather than bury it in a footer.
Hip imaging this site can read
The browser viewer opens hip and pelvis MRI, MR arthrograms, CT volumes and radiographs — an AP pelvis, a frog-leg lateral, or a full DICOM export burned onto a disc. Once the series is on screen you can page through slices, reformat where the volume allows it, and hand selected images to the AI layer. What comes back is a description in patient language: how the femoral head sits in the socket, whether the joint space looks even, whether the marrow signal is homogeneous or shows a crescent suggestive of avascular change, how the gluteal tendon insertions look at the greater trochanter, and where the acetabular labrum would be visible if the sequence resolves it.
Honest limits
Labral pathology is notoriously hard without intra-articular contrast, and a plain MRI that says nothing about the labrum is not evidence that the labrum is intact. Cam and pincer morphology is measured with angles on dedicated views; this site does not compute alpha angles, centre-edge angles or version, and any comment on impingement shape is descriptive only. Early avascular necrosis, occult femoral neck stress fractures and referred pain from the lumbar spine are all situations where a confident-sounding paragraph can be flatly wrong. There is no radiologist sign-off on the text you read.
How we handle medical risk
Nobody reaches the analyzer without first passing a consent gate that spells out what this tool is not. Outputs are labelled as informational throughout, and our Medical Disclaimer treats overconfident wording, invented findings and missed pathology as known properties of general-purpose models. Sudden inability to bear weight, a hip that shortens or rotates after a fall, or night pain with fever belongs in front of a doctor immediately, whatever any generated text may suggest.
Nothing is uploaded and nothing is kept
Decoding happens locally. Your archive is unpacked, your DICOM headers are read and your slices are rendered by JavaScript executing in your tab, so the study itself never crosses the network to us. An analysis request carries only the pictures you chose to include and the free text you wrote — stripped of the identifying header fields — and the server keeps no persistent copy afterwards. We deliberately run without a medical file store, so there is no archive of yours for us to lose, sell or hand over. The Privacy Policy covers the rest.
Reaching us
We do not list an email address, because a single form routes everything to the right place and keeps what you write out of a shared mailbox. Use it for anything: a wrong answer, a broken upload, a translation that reads badly, or a question about how this works.
