Worried about baby granddaughter

Later today my 5 week old granddaughter is having a scan on her hips . The midwife was concerned that one side is “ not quite right “ and clicks a bit when she makes the frog movement ( not sure of it’s proper name) . It was quite a traumatic birth so not sure if relevant . My DD is past herself with worry (as am I but trying to stay calm for DD’s sake) .
What will the scan show ? What can they do ? Will they tell my DD today if there is something to be concerned about?
I desperately need some reassurance .

Excellent news! I was just coming on to say my daughter had worn a Pavlik harness (thank you grannyactivist - I had forgotten the name of it) and the condition was easily righted after a few months.
So glad she doesnt need treatment!
