MRI - Shoulder Joint

MRI – Shoulder Joint is an advanced imaging technique that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the shoulder structures, including the rotator cuff, ligaments, cartilage, and surrounding soft tissues. It is highly effective in detecting injuries and abnormalities that may not be visible on X-rays or CT scans.

This scan is commonly used to diagnose conditions such as rotator cuff tears, ligament injuries, tendonitis, joint instability, inflammation, and tumors. It is especially useful for evaluating sports injuries and chronic shoulder pain. The procedure is safe, painless, and does not involve radiation.

The purpose of this MRI – Shoulder Joint test is to:

• Evaluate shoulder pain and restricted movement
• Detect rotator cuff tears and tendon injuries
• Identify ligament damage or joint instability
