Magnetic resonance imaging of the shoulder anatomy.
Magnetic Resonance represents the best method for shoulder study, since it enables us to emphasize all the parts making part of this area thanks to high anatomical details and a comprehensive view of it. Conventional radiographic techniques provide only limited evaluation of soft-tissue anatomy; ultrasonography, on the other hand, allows the visualization of tendons, synovial spaces and muscle fascicles but it is shown to be unfit above all for osseous structure evaluation: TC, finally, is not being employed at present in shoulder study.
