Abstract
MRI has rapidly become a commonly used technique for evaluation of the shoulder. It provides a wealth of information regarding the entire shoulder girdle, and it is the most accurate noninvasive method available for imaging the rotator cuff. There have been numerous technical improvements in MRI in the relatively short time that clinical MRI has been in existence. Further refinements in design, new imaging sequences, and additional clinical experience should help to increase the accuracy and flexibility of this imaging modality.
