Is a normal x ray will scan wheather you have hip bursitis or a special kind of x ray to scan for joint or hip

i want to check wheather i have hip bursitis ..

There is a possibility that you can see the inflammation caused by bursitis on a "plain film" x-ray or CT (cat scan), but the ideal procedure will be an MRI. You can see more detail in the joint capsule, as well as muscular involvement.

Don't be surprised, however, if you bring your concerns about having bursitis up to your doctor, and he or she orders a plain film x-ray first. Most insurance companies require it.

Best of luck and happy healing!
