  • Title: [Traumatic bone and cartilage injuries of the shoulder].
    Author: Scheurecker G.
    Journal: Radiologe; 2015 Mar; 55(3):188-94. PubMed ID: 25680394.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Traumatic injuries to the shoulder joint occur both as isolated, especially to the humerus and clavicle, as well as accompanying glenohumeral dislocations. AIM: To give an overview of the main approach of diagnostic imaging of the more common traumatic injuries to bone and/or cartilage of the shoulder joint. Only the scapula, proximal humerus and lateral clavicle are covered. METHODS: In this overview radiography (RG), computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are considered. Sonography is not included. CONCLUSION: The radiological report has to correctly identify injuries and describe their extent but the use of classification schemes is strongly dependent on local procedural practices.
