PURPOSE: To introduce and evaluate the usefulness of the adduction internal rotation (ADIR) position in MR arthrography for discriminating the following subtypes of Bankart lesions: classic Bankart lesions, anterior labroligamentous periosteal sleeve avulsion (ALPSA) lesions, and Perthes lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study group consisted of 25 patients who had been referred for MR arthrography of the shoulder and then underwent arthroscopy due to recurrent episodes of shoulder dislocation. MR arthrography was performed in three different positions: neutral, abduction external rotation (ABER), and ADIR. The authors evaluated the statistical significance of the method's discriminative diagnostic ability for the subtypes of Bankart lesions according to the position changes. RESULTS: Twenty-three patients had the following single or complex labral lesions: classic Bankart (N = 8), ALPSA (N = 3), complex classic Bankart/ALPSA (N = 8), and complex ALPSA/Perthes (N = 4). Two patients had no visible anteroinferior labral lesions. The performance of ADIR positioning for differentiating ALPSA lesions was superior to the neutral or ABER positioning. The difference of the discriminative lesion detection ability was statistically significant (P <.01) only for detecting ALPSA lesions in the ADIR position. CONCLUSION: MR arthrography in the ADIR position provides high accuracy for the diagnosis of ALPSA lesions, and complements routine MR arthrography when used to diagnose labroligamentous lesions in patients with recurrent shoulder dislocations. 相似文献

Although MR imaging and MR arthrography are the first choice modalities for shoulder imaging, CT arthrography (CTA) may be used successfully to address many clinical questions. The advent of sub-millimeter multiple detector CT (MDCT) technology and subsequent excellent three-plane resolution has considerably increased the quality of CTA examinations and has propelled this technique to the forefront in a growing number of indications. 相似文献

Indirect MR arthrography is a relatively new MR technique improving articular and periarticular contrast. It is achieved
by injection of paramagnetic MR contrast media intravenously instead of intra-articular injection as in direct MR arthrography.
After the injection exercising the joint results in considerable signal intensity increase within the joint cavity. Fat saturated
MR sequences then yield arthrographic images. The method is less invasive than direct MR arthrography and first results showed
comparable sensitivities and specificities for rotator cuff and glenoid labrum pathology. In this article the technique, established
and potential future indications, drawbacks and limitations of the method are reviewed.

Objectives
To compare axial T1weighted fat-saturated (T1w fs) and T1w non-fs sequences, and coronal T1w-fs and T2w-fs sequences, for evaluation of cartilage and labrum using CT arthrography (CTA) as the reference.Methods
Patients had MR arthrography (MRA) and CTA of the shoulder on the same day. Cartilage was assessed for superficial and full thickness focal and diffuse damage. Labral lesions were graded for Bankart variants and SLAP lesions. CTA images were read for the same features. The diagnostic performance of MRA including area under the curve (AUC) was evaluated against CTA.Results
When comparing axial sequences, the diagnostic performance for cartilage lesion detection on T1w non-fs was 61.9% (sensitivity) 93.6% (specificity) and 89.5% (accuracy) with AUC 0.782, while that for T1w fs was 61.9%, 94.0%, 89.8% and 0.783. For labral assessment, it was 89.1%, 93.0%, 91.4% and 0.919 for T1w non-fs, and 89.9%, 94.0%, 92.6% and 0.922 for T1w fs. Comparing coronal sequences, diagnostic performance for cartilage was 42.5%, 97.5%, 89.8% and 0.702 for T1w fs, and 38.4%, 98.7%, 90.2%, and 0.686 for T2w fs. For the labrum it was 85.1%, 87.5%, 86.2%, and 0.868 for T1w fs, and 75.7%, 97.5%, 80.8% and 0.816 for T2w fs.Conclusions
Axial T1w fs and T1w non-fs sequences are comparable in their ability to diagnose cartilage and labral lesions. Coronal T1w fs sequence offers slightly higher sensitivity but slightly lower specificity than T2w fs sequence for diagnosis of cartilage and labral lesions. 相似文献5.

Objective. To demonstrate the MRI findings of an anterior shoulder capsular avulsion from the humerus, with or without subscapularis
rupture, after anterior dislocation or severe abduction external rotation injury. Design and patients. We retrospectively reviewed the MRI and MR arthrographic examinations of seven patients who were identified at surgery with
avulsion of the anterior shoulder stabilizers from the humerus. MRI was correlated with clinical history and surgical results.
Results. MRI findings included: inhomogeneity or frank disruption of the anterior capsule at the humeral insertion (all), fluid intensity
anterior to the shoulder (six patients), tear of the subscapularis tendon (six patients), dislocation of the biceps tendon
(four patients), and a Hill-Sachs deformity (four patients). MR arthrography additionally found extravasation of contrast
through the capsular defect (two patients). Conclusions. Our findings suggest that MRI is helpful for diagnosing humeral avulsion of the anterior glenohumeral capsule, especially
when a tear of the subscapularis tendon insertion is present. MR arthrography may be of benefit for diagnosing capsular avulsion
without associated subscapularis tendon abnormality. 相似文献

In the setting of glenohumeral instability or when internal derangement of the shoulder joint is suspected, MR arthrography
has been demonstrated to be an accurate diagnostic imaging technique. Knowledge of the complex anatomy of the shoulder and
its variations is essential in order to maximize diagnostic accuracy.

In the age of cost containment and urgent reductions in health care expenditures, new options have to be explored to satisfy
both diagnostic requirements and economic limitations. The introduction of low-field MR systems for assessment of joint disorders
seemed to be an option for lower costs. The purpose of this article is to summarize available experiences with low-field MR
arthrography of the glenohumeral joint with respect to image quality and diagnostic accuracy in detecting labral and rotator
cuff lesions. Up to now, there has been only a limited number of studies available dealing with low-field MR arthrography
of the glenohumeral joint. They reveal that, despite a minor image quality in comparison with high-field imaging, low-field
MR arthrography of the shoulder allows for sufficient evaluation of intra- and extra-articular structures in the detection
of major abnormalities such as glenohumeral instability or rotator cuff disease. Furthermore, open-configured MR scanners
enable kinematic studies: Besides the analysis of normal motion, pathological findings in patients with instabilities and
impingement syndrome can be delineated. They further offer the possibility for performing MR imaging-guided arthrography of
the shoulder. This was first described using an open C-arm scanner with a vertically oriented magnetic field so that MR arthrography
may be performed in one setting.

Purpose
To compare direct MR arthrography and CT arthrography for the preoperative planning of shoulder anterior instability.Patients and methods
47 patients were included in this study. 43 patients with clinical history of anterior GHI or recurrent shoulder pain had no clinical findings of rotator cuff abnormality. They experienced multiple anterior dislocations of the shoulder. No patient showed evidence of multidirectional instability or generalized ligamentous laxity. The remaining 4 patients complained of anterior shoulder instability after anchor repair. All the patients underwent direct CT and MR arthrography. The results of CTA and MRA were compared with results obtained from arthroscopy in each patient to detect the sensitivity and specificity of each modality.Results
The sensitivity and specificity of CTA for bankart lesion are 89.4% and 96.4% respectively and of MRA 94.7% and 96.4%, for Perthes lesion the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 33.3% and 100% respectively and of MRA 66.6% and 100%, for ALPSA the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 85.7% and 97.5% respectively and of MRA 100% and 97.5%, for GLAD the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 80% and 97.6% respectively and of MRA 60% and 97.6%, for SLAP lesion the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 100% and 100%, for absent or degenerated labrum the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 66.6% and 97.7%, for post operative recurrent Bankart lesion the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 50% and 100%, for bony glenoid fracture the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 66.6% and 97.5%.Conclusion
CTA and MRA were equivalent in demonstrating labro-ligamentous and cartilaginous lesions associated with shoulder instability. CTA was superior in detecting post operative instability and glenoid rim osseous lesions that are known to be a decisional element in the surgical strategy. Hence, CTA may be considered a method of choice in the preoperative evaluation of shoulder anterior instability. 相似文献9.

Purpose:
To assess the value of adding axial traction to direct MR arthrography of the shoulder, in terms of subacromial and glenohumeral joint space widths, and coverage of the superior labrum‐biceps tendon complex and articular cartilage by contrast material.Materials and Methods:
Twenty‐one patients investigated by direct MR arthrography of the shoulder were prospectively included. Studies were performed with a 3 Tesla (T) unit and included a three‐dimensional isotropic fat‐suppressed T1‐weighted gradient‐recalled echo sequence, without and with axial traction (4 kg). Two radiologists independently measured the width of the subacromial, superior, and inferior glenohumeral joint spaces. They subsequently rated the amount of contrast material around the superior labrum‐biceps tendon complex and between glenohumeral cartilage surfaces, using a three‐point scale: 0 = no, 1 = partial, 2 = full.Results:
Under traction, the subacromial (Δ = 2.0 mm, P = 0.0003), superior (Δ = 0.7 mm, P = 0.0001) and inferior (Δ = 1.4 mm, P = 0.0006) glenohumeral joint space widths were all significantly increased, and both readers noted significantly more contrast material around the superior labrum‐biceps tendon complex (P = 0.014), and between the superior (P = 0.001) and inferior (P = 0.025) glenohumeral cartilage surfaces.Conclusion:
Direct MR arthrography of the shoulder under axial traction increases subacromial and glenohumeral joint space widths, and prompts better coverage of the superior labrum‐biceps tendon complex and articular cartilage by contrast material.

Purpose:
To assess the ability of double oblique axial (DOA) MR arthrography in evaluating labral-ligamentous complex compared with conventional axial (CA) MR arthrography. Material and Methods:
MR arthrography of 51 shoulders, subsequently examined with arthroscopy, were retrospectively reviewed. DOA imaging was performed in all 51 shoulders and both DOA and CA imaging in 37 using a 1.5 T unit with gradient recalled-echo T2*-weighted sequences. DOA imaging was performed using perpendicular planes to the long axis of the glenoid fossa obtained by an oblique sagittal scout image. We compared the ability of DOA with that of CA MR arthrography to assess labral injuries and to demonstrate the whole length of the anterior band of the inferior glenohumeral ligament (AIGHL), which were shown to be intact by arthroscopy. Results:
For anterior labral injuries, sensitivity and specificity were 87% and 93% with CA, and 94% and 100% with DOA imaging, respectively. For posterior labral injuries, sensitivity and specificity were 47% and 100% with CA, and 79% and 96% with DOA imaging, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences between CA and DOA images, except for the ability to diagnose posterior labral injuries, where DOA imaging had a significant superior sensitivity (p = 0.0327). DOA images also demonstrated the whole length of the intact AIGHL in 10 of 11 shoulders, while CA imaging showed this in only 3 of 11. Conclusion:
DOA imaging was equal or better than CA imaging for evaluating the labral-ligamentous complex. 相似文献

Gradient-recalled echo sequences in direct shoulder MR arthrography for evaluating the labrum 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the utility of fat-suppressed gradient-recalled echo (GRE) compared with conventional
spin echo T1-weighted (T1W) sequences in direct shoulder MR arthrography for evaluating labral tears.
Materials and methods Three musculoskeletal radiologists retrospectively reviewed MR arthrograms performed over a 12-month period for which surgical
correlation was available. Of 180 serial arthrograms, 31 patients had surgery with a mean of 48 days following imaging. Paired
coronal oblique and axial T1W or GRE sequences were analyzed by consensus for labral tear (coronal oblique two-dimensional
multi-echo data image combination, 2D MEDIC; and axial three-dimensional double-echo steady-state, 3D DESS; Siemens MAGNETOM
Sonata 1.5-T MR system). Interpretations were correlated with operative reports.
Results Of 31 shoulders, 25 had labral tears at surgery. The GRE sequences depicted labral tears in 22, while T1W images depicted
tears in 16 (sensitivity 88% versus 64%; p < 0.05). Subdividing the labrum, GRE was significantly more sensitive for the posterior labrum (75% versus 25%; p < 0.05) with a trend toward greater sensitivity at the anterior labrum (78% versus 56%; p = 0.157) but not significantly different for the superior labrum (50% versus 57%; p > 0.7). Specificities were somewhat lower for GRE.
Conclusion Thin section GRE sequences are more sensitive than T1W for the detection of anterior and posterior labral tears. As the specificity
of GRE was lower, it should be considered as an adjunctive imaging sequence that may improve depiction of labral tears, particularly
smaller tears, in routine MR arthrography protocols.
Preliminary results of this study were presented at the Annual Meeting of the Society of Skeletal Radiology, Orlando, FL,

PURPOSE: To find the optimal contrast agent dilution to maximize signal intensity (SI), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) in shoulder MR arthrography using MR systems operating at different magnetic field strengths. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Autoptic human glenohumeral ligaments were inserted in eight egg-shaped 20-mL phantoms filled with saline and gadolinium diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid bismethylamide (Gd-DTPA-BMA) in different dilutions of 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 5, 12.5, 50 mmol/liter, to simulate the shoulder articular capsule. These phantoms were inserted inside two plastic 240-mL phantoms filled with water. MRI was performed on 0.2-, 0.5-, 1.0-, 1.5-, and 3.0-T MR systems using a three-dimensional gradient echo (GRE)-T1-weighted pulse sequence. SI, SNR, and CNR were determined. RESULTS: Peak SI and SNR were found at 5 mmol/liter, with the exception of the 0.2-T scanner, where the maximum was at 2 mmol/liter. Peak CNR was observed at 1 mmol/liter for the 3-T scanner, at 2 mmol/liter for the 0.2- and 0.5-T scanners, and at 5 mmol/liter for the remaining scanners. CONCLUSION: The optimal SI and SNR are provided by 5 mmol/liter contrast agent dilution. Peak CNR was found in a range between 1 and 5 mmol/liter dilutions, depending on the strength of the magnetic field. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of indirect MR arthrography images obtained following intravenous contrast
injection and conventional MR imaging in the diagnosis of rotator cuff tears. Twenty-four patients with clinically suspected
rotator cuff disease were examined. Conventional MR images and post-contrast indirect MR arthrography images were obtained.
All images were evaluated in a blinded fashion by two musculoskeletal radiologist. Results were than analyzed depending on
surgical output. The correlation coefficient (Spearman rank correlation test) and the kappa values for agreement between surgery
and imaging techniques were calculated. The correlation coefficients between indirect MR arthrography and surgery for reader
1 and reader 2 were 0.9137 and 0.9773, respectively. Whereas the agreement between conventional MR imaging and surgery was
moderate (ϰ = 0.383–0.571), the agreement between indirect MR arthrography and surgery was excellent (ϰ = 0.873–0.936). We
suggest the use of indirect MR arthrography technique when conventional MR images are equivocal in diagnosis of rotator cuff
disease.

Supraspinatus tendon tears: comparison of US and MR arthrography with surgical correlation 总被引:4,自引:4,他引:0
The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic reliability of US with MR arthrography in diagnosing supraspinatus tendon tears. Surgical findings were used as the gold standard in detecting tears. A total of 44 patients were assessed with transverse and longitudinal US scans with respect to the long axis of the rotator cuff tendons and then examined with MR arthrography. This technique involved free-hand injection of contrast medium into the shoulder joint. At surgery 20 incomplete and 24 complete tears were observed. Ultrasound offered good results for the large tears, but its sensitivity decreased proportionally with the size of the tears. Magnetic resonance arthrography correctly diagnosed 43 tears, whereas only one false-negative diagnosis of tendinosis was made for a partial tear on the bursal side. Since it improves the diagnosis of small tears, MR arthrography must be performed on all patients for whom surgical repair is necessary in order to restore normal functions. 相似文献

Rotator cuff tears: assessment with MR arthrography in 275 patients with arthroscopic correlation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We assessed the diagnostic performance of magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography in the diagnosis of articular-sided partial-thickness
and full-thickness rotator cuff tears in a large symptomatic population. MR arthrograms obtained in 275 patients including
a study group of 139 patients with rotator cuff tears proved by arthroscopy and a control group of 136 patients with arthroscopically
intact rotator cuff tendons were reviewed in random order. MR imaging was performed on a 1.0 T system (Magnetom Expert, Siemens).
MR arthrograms were analyzed by two radiologists in consensus for articular-sided partial-thickness and full-thickness tears
of the supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and subscapularis tendons. At arthroscopy, 197 rotator cuff tears were diagnosed, including
105 partial-thickness (93 supraspinatus, nine infraspinatus, three subscapularis) and 92 full-thickness (43 supraspinatus,
20 infraspinatus, 29 subscapularis) tendon tears. For full-thickness tears, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 96%,
99%, and 98%, respectively, and for partial tears 80%, 97%, and 95%, respectively. False negative and positive assessments
in the diagnosis of articular-sided partial-thickness tears were predominantly [78% (35/45)] observed with small articular-sided
(Ellman grade1) tendon tears. MR arthrography is highly accurate in the diagnosis of full-thickness rotator cuff tears and
is accurate in the diagnosis of articular-sided partial-thickness tears. Limitations in the diagnosis of partial-thickness
tears are mainly restricted to small articular-sided tears (Ellman grade 1) due to difficulties in differentiation between
fiber tearing, tendinitis, synovitic changes, and superficial fraying at tendon margins. 相似文献

The glenohumeral ligaments are important structures for the stability of the shoulder. They are integrated parts of the capsule and are at risk to be injured in a traumatic shoulder dislocation. The aim was to examine the prevalence of capsular ligament lesions in the acute phase and at minimum 3 weeks' follow-up after first-time traumatic shoulder dislocation. Forty-two patients aged 16-40 years were included. All patients underwent computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans shortly after the injury and MR-arthrography (MRA) at follow-up. The median time from dislocation to MRI was 7 (range 2-14) days and to MRA 30 (range 21-54) days. We found capsular ligament lesions in 22 patients (52.4%) in the acute stage and in five patients (11.9%) at follow up. Nine patients (21.4%) had a humeral avulsion of the anterior glenohumeral ligament (HAGL lesion) on MRI. Three patients (7.1%) had this lesion at follow-up. The rate of HAGL lesions in the acute stage was higher than reported previously, but the prevalence at follow-up was in keeping with earlier published studies. 相似文献

MR arthrography of partial thickness tears of the undersurface of the rotator cuff: an arthroscopic correlation 总被引:7,自引:2,他引:5

Objective Partial thickness tears of the undersurface (articular surface) of the rotator cuff (RTC) have been recognized increasingly in recent years as a source of treatable shoulder pain in the athletic population. This study evaluated the efficacy of MR arthrography (MR-ARTH) in diagnosing these tears.Design and patients The study design was a retrospective review of medical records of patients who had presented with refractory shoulder complaints and subsequently undergone MR arthrography with multiple signal MRI sequences followed by shoulder arthroscopy. Of particular interest were patients who had oblique T1 fat suppression (COT1FS), coronal oblique T2 (COT2), and coronal oblique T2 fat suppression (COT2FS) images taken. Seventy-six subjects met the study criteria. Investigators examined the MR-ARTH images from these patients' charts while blinded as to arthroscopic results, clinical signs and symptoms.Results Based on COT1FS images, investigators identified nine subjects as having had full thickness tears, 28 as having had partial thickness tears of the undersurface of the rotator cuff (PRTC), and 39 as having had intact RTC. These results were compared to actual findings at arthroscopy: nine full thickness tears, 26 of 28 with PRTC and 34 of 39 intact. The sensitivity of MR-ARTH was 84%, with a positive predictive value of 93%. The overall accuracy was 91% (69/76). The specificity was 96%. That is, if a PRTC was not seen on the MR-ARTH images, it was very unlikely to exist. COT2 and COT2FS sequences failed to increase sensitivity and overall efficacy of MRI.Conclusion PRTC can be diagnosed accurately by MR-ARTH with gadopentatate contrast. A COT1FS sequence is recommended for evaluation when tears are suspected. 相似文献

Objective
The purpose of our study was to use magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and MR arthrography to demonstrate the anatomy of the lateral ankle ligaments using standard and oblique imaging planes in cadavers.Material and methods
MR imaging of ten cadaveric ankles was performed before and after intra-articular administration of contrast solution. Proton-density MR images were acquired in standard and oblique imaging planes. MR imaging was correlated with anatomic sections. Measurements using oblique imaging planes were obtained to characterize the morphology of the lateral ligaments.Results
The anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) had a variable number of bands in all specimens, separated by fat signal oriented obliquely parallel to the long axis of the ligament. The fibular attachment of ATFL was located in close proximity to the fibular attachment of the distal band of the anterior tibiofibular ligament (AITFL). The angle formed by the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) and the fibular shaft varied with different ankle positions. Special axial oblique plane best demonstrated the CFL. The posterior talofibular ligament (PTFL) was multi-fasciculated in appearance. Dorsiflexion of the ankle joint helped elongate the PTFL and best depicted this ligament in its entirety in the axial plane.Conclusion
Oblique imaging planes parallel to the long axis of the individual ligaments may improve visualization of the anatomy of the lateral ankle ligaments. The orientation of the lateral ankle ligaments is affected by the position of the talocrural and subtalar joints. Understanding the morphology of the lateral ankle ligaments can help radiologists diagnose abnormalities of these ligaments. 相似文献19.

Purpose:
To prospectively evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography for the detection of articular cartilage abnormalities at 3.0T and 7.0T in cadaveric wrists.Materials and Methods:
MR imaging (MRI) was performed in nine cadaveric wrists (four right wrists, five left; mean age, 81.0 ± 9.8 years) after the intraarticular administration of gadoterate‐meglumine. A 3.0T and 7.0T MR system, mechanically identical custom‐built 8‐channel wrist coil arrays and a similar standard MRI protocol, were used. MR images were evaluated for visibility of articular cartilage surfaces, presence of cartilage lesions, and confidence of diagnosis by two independent radiologists. Open pathologic inspection served as reference standard. Sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive values (NPV) and positive predictive values (PPV), and accuracy (ACC) were calculated. Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to assess differences in the diagnostic performance.Results:
Visibility of articular cartilage surfaces was significantly better at 3.0T than at 7.0T (P < 0.001). Mean sensitivity, specificity, NPV, PPV, ACC for both readers were 63%, 90%, 85%, 76%, 82% at 3.0T, respectively, and 52%, 91%, 82%, 75%, 79% at 7.0T. The difference between 3.0T and 7.0T was not significant for reader 1 (P = 0.51), but was significant for reader 2 (P = 0.01). The level of confidence was significantly higher at 3.0T than at 7.0T for both readers (P = 0.004; P = 0.03).Conclusion:
MR arthrography of the wrist at 7.0T is still limited by the lack of commercially available radiofrequency coils and limited experience in sequence optimization, resulting in a significantly lower visibility of anatomy, lower diagnostic accuracy, and level of confidence in judging cartilage lesions compared to 3.0T.

Objective. Arthrographically, adhesive capsulitis is characterized by decreased joint volume; histologically, the capsule and synovium
are thickened. We therefore compared using MR arthrography the joint volumes and capsule/synovial thickness of patients with
and without adhesive capsulitis in order to assess the utility of MR arthrography in diagnosing adhesive capsulitis.
Design and patients. The 1.5 T MR arthrography images of 28 subjects with (n=9) and without (n=19) adhesive capsulitis were compared. Adhe- sive capsulitis was diagnosed when there was an injected glenohumeral joint
volume of less than 10 ml. Two masked observers working in consensus assessed the images for the relative amount of fluid
in the biceps tendon sheath and axillary recess, corrugation at the margin of the capsule, capsule/synovial thickness, abnormalities
of the rotator interval capsule, and for the presence of a cuff tear.
Results. There was a trend towards differences in capsular and synovial thickness (P>0.07) between the subjects with and without adhesive capsulitis; however, the controls had thicker synovium/capsules. Surprisingly,
the amount of fluid in the axillary recess and biceps tendon sheath was not significantly different between the groups (P>0.25). There were more tears of the rotator cuff in controls than in patients with adhesive capsulitis (6, 3 vs 1, 1: complete,
partial). Also, both corrugation (7 vs 0) and interval abnormalities (7 vs 0) were more common in the controls.
Conclusion. There appear to be no useful MR arthrographic signs of adhesive capsulitis. Capsular/synovial thickness, static fluid volume,
and the presence of corrugation are inconclusive as MR arthrographic signs for distinguishing shoulders with adhesive capsulitis
from those without.
