Diagram showing the radiographic parameters measured. L1 is the trans-teardrop line. L2 is the line between the teardrop and the acetabular edge. L3 is the line connecting the femoral head center and the acetabular edge. L4 is the vertical line at the femoral head center. The ilioischial line is the line connecting the lateral borders of the greater sciatic notch and obturator foramen. Sharp acetabular (SA) angle is the angle between L1 and L2, whereas center-edge angle (CEA) is the angle between L3 and L4. D is the distance between the medial femoral head and ilioischial line, which represents lateralization
