Radiographic/MR Imaging Correlation of the Shoulder

Magn Reson Imaging Clin N Am. 2019 Nov;27(4):575-585. doi: 10.1016/j.mric.2019.07.005.

Abstract

This article discusses the typical findings seen on conventional radiography in 3 common shoulder pathologies, namely glenohumeral instability, rotator cuff pathology, and acromioclavicular joint dislocation. Correlative MR images are used to explain and illustrate the significance of radiographic findings that suggest the presence of underlying shoulder pathology.

Keywords: Acromioclavicular joint; Instability; MR imaging; Radiography; Rotator cuff; Shoulder.
