I know this is a really old question but I'm answering so that maybe others might learn.
The scanner you refer to is actually the E Scan (or possibly the E Scan XQ or the E Scan Opera) by Esaote.
You are correct, the flex coil for hips does not give good coverage or good signal. Most of our E Scan customers never use the coil.
A larger problem for hip studies is that the opening in the magnet and the FOV of the magnet severely limits the ability to scan patients of average and larger than average size.
the same can be said of doing shoulder exams on this scanner, in general the images are not met with happiness by the radiologists.
