Abstract

The purposes of this paper are: 1) to review the different radiographic projections commonly used to explore shoulder pathology; 2) to propose a practical approach for radiographic evaluation of the shoulder, adapted to the main clinical situations; 3) to recognize the different imaging features of the most frequent shoulder diseases.
