Pseudonym	Sex	Age	BMI	Pain duration (years)	Occupation	iHOT-12 (0–100)	Örebro (0–100)	Diagnostic imaging reports
Ana	Female	50	20.5	2	Tertiary student	11	82	Mild gluteal tendinopathy (medius and minimus), thickening troch bursa. Tear of anterosuperior and posterosuperior labrum; intralabral cystic change; mild OA, full thickness cartilage loss superior acetabulum 30 mm × 11 mm associated to marrow changes; high grade partial thickness tear gluteus minimus 18 mm.
Brooke	Female	67	20.6	10	Retired	36	57	Gluteus minimus tendon tear.
Chloe	Female	54	31.2	3.5	Paid employment	14	67	Chondral degeneration at the superolateral acetabular margin with subcortical cystic changes; thickening and oedema of the greater trochanteric bursa with some gluteal tendinopathy and fissuring; fatty involutional change of the gluteus minimus muscle belly.
Dawn	Female	46	34.6	3	Tertiary student	12	64	Advanced OA; labral tear.
Erin	Female	33	24.1	3.5	Paid employment	29	39	Small full thickness tear anterosuperior labrum; mild reduction femoral head/neck offset anterosuperiorly, may predispose to FAI. Mild trochanteric bursal odema.
Fleur	Female	53	25.3	3	Paid employment	57	27	Degenerative tearing of anterosuperior labrum with associated ligamentum teres tear; some tendinopathy of the common hamstring origin.
Grant	Male	42	27.6	0.3	Paid employment	35	58	Query ossicle at at anterosuperior acetabulum.
Helen	Female	52	26.7	1.5	Tertiary student	45	56	Tearing superior labrum, thinning acetabular rim.
Ian	Male	51	25.2	6	Paid employment	33	55	Complete avulsion of conjoint attachment of semitendinosus and biceps femoris tendons from the ischial tuberosity. Extension tear into semimembranosus attachment partially retracted. Adductor tendonitis.
Jane	Female	51	26.4	15	Paid employment	42	24	Sacroiliac joint highly suspicious for a subchondral insufficiency fracture. Small osseous bump at the anterior femoral head/neck junction consistent with asphericity. Chondrolabral tear spanning 6 mm involving the superolateral and posterolateral labrum. Increased signal involving the quadratus femoris muscle. Minor insertional tearing of the hamstring origin. Ischiofemoral impingement suggested.
Karen	Female	66	33.5	3	Retired	14	57	Tendinopathy of gluteus medius and minimus tendons without high grade focal tearing. Mild thickening of trochanteric bursa but no evidence of effusion. Greater trochanter bursitis.
Liam	Male	73	33.2	20	Retired	46	65	Greater trochanter bursitis. Partial gluteus medius tear.
Mia	Female	43	26.8	2	Paid employment	56	43	Tear at anterosuperior quadrant of the acetabular labrum with an extremely small paralabral cyst; mild degenerative change at the hip joint, chondral loss from the femoral head peripheral to the fovea and minor chondral fissuring at the acetabulum laterally; gluteus minimus and medius tendon pathology, more pronounced in relation to the anterior fibres of gluteus medius markedly tendinopathic.
Nancy	Female	40	24.6	2	Paid employment	19	72	Partial labral tear involving the superior labrum. Mild iliopsoas bursitis. Low grade iliopsoas muscular strain.
Owen	Male	41	32.9	6.5	Paid employment	22	61	Partially reducible fat containing inguinal hernia. Gluteus medius tendinopathy with mild thickening trochanteric bursa; mild bony protuberance at femoral head/neck junction suggestive of early CAM.
Paige	Female	57	34.2	16	Paid employment			Tear of anterosuperior and posterosuperior portions of the labrum with intralabral cystic change. Mild osteoarthritis of hip joint and synovitis. High grade partial thickness tear of the gluteus minimus tendon.
