Our results demonstrate a high, gradually increasing proportion of patients who received a hip MRI and a low but increasing proportion of patients who received hip arthroscopy in close proximity to THA. Multidisciplinary collaboration may improve knowledge translation and help reduce the rate of clinically unnecessary diagnostic and therapeutic interventions in this population of patients who require THA.
