چکیده

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to anatomically confirm that anterior shoulder injection could result in penetration of the anterior stabilizing structures of the glenohumeral joint and to advocate the use of a tailored approach to MR arthrography based on presenting symptoms. CONCLUSION A tailored approach to MR arthrography may be a useful way to isolate expected pathology in the shoulder and limit confounding findings related to the performance of the procedure.

Magnetic resonance arthrography of the glenohumeral joint: ultrasonography-guided technique using a posterior approach.

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and feasibility of ultrasound (US)-guided magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography of the glenohumeral joint via a posterior approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-four patients (18 males and 16 females) who were suspected to have glenohumeral joint pathology were examined using MR arthrography. The patients ranged in age from 21 to 8...

Anatomy, Variants, and Pathologies of the Superior Glenohumeral Ligament: Magnetic Resonance Imaging with Three-Dimensional Volumetric Interpolated Breath-Hold Examination Sequence and Conventional Magnetic Resonance Arthrography

The purpose of this review was to demonstrate magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography findings of anatomy, variants, and pathologic conditions of the superior glenohumeral ligament (SGHL). This review also demonstrates the applicability of a new MR arthrography sequence in the anterosuperior portion of the glenohumeral joint. The SGHL is a very important anatomical structure in the rotator interva...

MR-arthrography and CT-arthrography in sports-related glenolabral injuries: a matched descriptive illustration

The combination of a large range of motion and insufficient bony stabilization makes the glenohumeral joint susceptible to injuries including dislocation in young athletes. Magnetic resonance arthrography (MR-arthrography) and computed tomography arthrography (CT-arthrography) play an important role in the preoperative workup of labroligametous injuries. This paper illustrates MR-arthrography a...

Demystifying ABER (ABduction and External Rotation) sequence in shoulder MR arthrography.

ABduction and External Rotation (ABER) sequence in magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography of the shoulder is particularly important to better depict abnormal conditions of some glenohumeral joint structures and surrounding tissues by making imaging possible under a stress position relevant to pathologic conditions. Among the structures and tissues better depicted in this position are articular su...
