Imaging of the rotator cuff: an arthrographic pitfall

Eur Radiol. 1998;8(5):817-9. doi: 10.1007/s003300050478.

Abstract

We present a case where MRI and arthrography of the shoulder reports provided seemingly conflicting data. The subsequent findings at arthroscopy revealed a potential pitfall in arthrographic interpretation.
