Abstract:
Shoulder injection procedures are powerful diagnostic and therapeutic tools for the care of patients with osteoarthritis and other pathologic conditions of the shoulder-girdle region. Although questions regarding many of the details of the specific procedures still need to be answered, a modest body of literature is available.
