Popis: Purpose The objectives were to compare conventional oblique coronal and axial images with radial images to determine the capacities of these modalities for visualizing sites in the glenoid labrum. Materials and methods The glenoid labra of 45 patients without a labrum injury and 30 patients with Bankart lesions were examined by magnetic resonance imaging using three different sections. Results The radial images permitted a greater range of assessment of the morphology of the glenoid labrum than the conventional images. Conclusion Radial magnetic resonance imaging is a useful method for evaluation of the glenoid labrum and enables wider visualization than conventional methods.
