Magnetic resonance imaging of the coraco-acromial ligament.
The coraco-acromial ligament is important first for the stability of the shoulder joint and second because it can impinge on the rotator cuff. In this study we demonstrate how the coraco-acromial ligament can be shown by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the axial plane as well as in the more conventional coronal and sagittal planes.
