[Nuclear magnetic resonance tomography and ultrasound imaging of anatomic structures of the shoulder joint].
The possibilities of MRI and ultrasound in visualizing the structures of the shoulder joint are compared. Both methods have a good accuracy in detecting changes of the soft tissue of the shoulder. Changes of the cartilage and the bony structures are better seen in the MRI. The MRI gives a static and clear view of the shoulder joint, meanwhile the ultrasound depends on the dynamic examination. Ultrasound and MRI are both reproducible and non-invasive methods, who seem to complete one another at the examination of the shoulder.
