  • Title: Glenoid labrum: preliminary work with use of radial-sequence MR imaging.
    Author: Munk PL, Holt RG, Helms CA, Genant HK.
    Journal: Radiology; 1989 Dec; 173(3):751-3. PubMed ID: 2813781.
    Abstract:
    The authors describe a magnetic resonance imaging method for examination of the glenoid labrum of the shoulder joint that utilizes a radial fast-imaging sequence. Seven shoulders were examined: a total of five in three healthy asymptomatic volunteers, one in a symptomatic patient not suspected of having a lesion of the glenoid labrum, and one in a patient with recurrent shoulder dislocation and surgical proof of an extensive tear of the labrum. The preliminary results suggest that this technique may advantageously demonstrate pathologic changes in the glenoid labrum and may contribute to the evaluation of the unstable and painful shoulder.
