On non-contrast MRI or CT arthrography imaging, lesions might be harder to find, but the more recent 3T MRI scanners might increase the pick-up rate in the absence of contrast. [4] The accepted gold standard for identifying or detecting the glenolabral articular disruption lesion is MR arthroscopy (MRA). [1]
The lesion is associated with any damage to the antero-inferior labrum. Most commonly due to anterior shoulder dislocation. The lesion often occurs after the initial dislocation. In chronic cases, there may be fibrosis and resynovialization of the labrum and periosteum. [citation needed] The lesion is best identified on MR arthrography.
PD-weighted MRI with fat saturation of the shoulder showing an ALPSA lesion An ALPSA (anterior labral periosteal sleeve avulsion ) lesion is an injury at the front of the shoulder associated with shoulder dislocation .
A Bankart lesion is a type of shoulder injury that occurs following a dislocated shoulder. [3] It is an injury of the anterior ( inferior ) glenoid labrum of the shoulder. [ 4 ] When this happens, a pocket at the front of the glenoid forms that allows the humeral head to dislocate into it.
Milwaukee shoulder syndrome (MSS) (apatite-associated destructive arthritis/Basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystal arthritis/rapid destructive arthritis of the shoulder) [1] is a rare [2] rheumatological condition similar to pseudogout, associated with periarticular or intra-articular deposition of hydroxyapatite or basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystals.

Shoulder arthrography can be used to study tears of the rotator cuff, glenoid labrum and biceps. [2] The type of contrast injected into the joint depends on the subsequent imaging that is planned. For pneumoarthrography, gas is used, for CT or radiographs, a water-soluble radiopaque contrast, and for MRI, gadolinium. Double-contrast ...
