[MRI in shoulder joint instability].
The paper provides the results of MRI studies in 100 patients having complaints of pain and impaired movements in the shoulder joint in order to establish a diagnosis. Sixty-three patients were found to have MRI signs of shoulder joint instability (SJI). The paper presents and states the found MRI symptoms of SJI. The authors concludes that MRI of the shoulder joint in its instability should be used appropriately as it may early reveal changes in the articular osseous, cartilaginous, and soft tissues, which is useful in diagnosing and choosing a treatment.
