Background: A prevalent issue that presents challenging diagnostic and treatment options is shoulder pain. The present study demonstrated the role of MRI in detecting shoulder pathologies. Materials & Methods:83 cases of shoulder pain of both genders were selected. MRI of the Shoulder was performed using 0.3T Centurion imaging system. The sequences used were—AXIAL T1W, AXIAL T2W, AXIALPD, CORONALOBLIQUE STIR, CORONAL OBLIQUE PD, SAGITTAL OBLIQUE T2. Results:Out of 83 patients, 53 were males and 30 were females. Pathologies were acute bursitis in 13, partial rotator cuff tearsin7, complete rotator cuff tears in 11, labral tears in 9, subacromial impingement syndrome in 5, biceps tendonitis in 18 and adhesive capsulitis in 20 patients. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion: The gold standard for shoulder diagnostic imaging associated with soft tissue injury is magnetic resonance imaging. Its non-invasiveness, lack of contrast exposure, nonionizing radiation, high degree of resolution, and capacity to assess several possible pathologic processes are among its benefits. |
