OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to test our hypothesis that football players with shoulder pain, shoulder instability, or both requiring MR arthrography for evaluation are at an increased likelihood relative to non-football players for having a tear of the posterior glenoid labrum. CONCLUSION: We conclude that posterior glenoid labrum tears are more prevalent in football players than in non-football players.
A 21-year-old man presented with ankle pain after a motor vehicle accident. Imaging revealed an acute fracture of the os trigonum in addition to multiple, other lower-extremity fractures. In this case, the fracture of the os trigonum was a result of a significant traumatic injury. Thus, the presence of this fracture in an acute setting should prompt a search for other associated fractures.
OBJECTIVE: In this article, we describe a user-friendly Web-based interface that allows review of images combined with integrated data collection and entry for use at multiple sites involved in a large multicenter research project. CONCLUSION: The Web-based system that we present uses a commercially available Internet browser and Web platform and allows automated data entry that can be easily uploaded into standard data analysis programs. The system simplifies the complex logistics of using multiple sites and reviewers for radiology research and can preserve human subject confidentiality. We tested the system using a large-scale multicenter cohort study of pelvic fracture-related hemorrhage (the "Evaluating Pelvic Hemorrhage" study). Program testing revealed seamless remote image interpretation and data acquisition.
OBJECTIVE: We describe three patients who presented with radiographic findings of a fragment on the medial side of the tibial plateau of the knee that represented an avulsion of the deep portion of the medial collateral ligament. These findings were all associated with disruption of the posterior cruciate ligament and a peripheral medial meniscal tear-the so-called reverse Segond fracture. CONCLUSION: Avulsion fracture at the tibial insertion of the deep component of the medial collateral ligament is a rare finding. When this type of injury is diagnosed, the radiologist should consider posterior cruciate ligament injury and peripheral medial meniscal tears as possible associated findings.
