Who Should Attend
The course is designed to meet the needs of all practicing radiologists who interpret shoulder MR images during the course of their work. Because many entities that involve the shoulder present clinically as rotator cuff disease a properly interpreted shoulder MR often changes the treatment dramatically, sometimes even obviating the need for surgery. Also, many times cuff and labral disease coexist making the clinical exam confusing. Awareness of this can guide the surgeon to the appropriate treatment pathway.

Goals and Objectives
After attending the MRI of the Shoulder webinar, participants will be able to:

  1. Diagnose subtle cuff tears that can be hidden due to internal rotation.
  2. Recognize normal variants in the labrum that can mimic a torn or detached labrum.
  3. Appreciate the utility of MR arthrography.
  4. Diagnose multiple entities that can mimic cuff disease.
