[Clinical examination of the shoulder].
The clinical examination is decisive in the diagnosis of shoulder pathologies. This examination should be exact and systematic and in relation with the anatomical structures. With patient history, the clinical examination allows in over 90% of the cases a correct diagnosis. Complementary exams such as standard X-rays, CT-Scan, MRI and neurological examinations serve to confirm the diagnosis and to allow precise surgical planning.
