Abstract:
The ability to simultaneously and comprehensively evaluate both articular and extra-articular structures represents a distinct advantage for MR imaging over all other diagnostic methods. This article reviews how the technique can demonstrate a wide spectrum of abnormalities in and around the shoulder, with an emphasis on abnormalities encountered during MR imaging that were clinically unsuspected at the time of examination.
