With its great sensitivity to soft-tissue abnormalities, MRI is ideally suited for the evaluation of impingement syndrome. It can detect the full gamut of rotator cuff disease easily--from bursitis through tendonitis to frank tears of the rotator cuff tendons. This issue of Applied Imaging will discuss these findings, as well as the diagnosis of shoulder dislocation.Tuesday, 14 May 2002 20:04:47 GMT
