Is full anesthesia required for HD films in your country?
Here in the US, you can anesthetize or not... personally, I prefer not... yes, there are some who feel it gives a less accurate reading (makes the hips look tighter than they are), but I get to go into the xray room and help hold my dog, relax them and make it a pleasant and less risky procedure.
Even without anesthesia, you can clearly see the depth of the acetabulum, shape of the femoral head, etc... the only thing that cannot be evaluated as clearly is laxity...
