MRI EXAMINATION OF THE LEFT SHOULDER WITHOUT CONTRAST
FINDINGS: Axial, sagittal, and coronal
oblique images were obtained on the Open MRI at XXXXXXXXX. There are degenerative changes at the
acromioclavicular joint and impingement syndrome. There is a high riding shoulder. The supraspinatus tendon and muscle are
identified and appear intact, but there is edema near the insertion and concern
for a partial tear. The age of this is
indeterminate and would recommend clinical correlation. The glenoid labrum and biceps tendon appear
without gross abnormality and there is no significant joint effusion in the
region of the glenoid fossa. There is no
other significant acute abnormality.
IMPRESSION: Impingement syndrome. Partial tear near the insertion of the
rotator cuff. The age of this is
indeterminate and would recommend clinical correlation. A preliminary report was discussed with Dr. XXXXXXXXX at the time of examination.
Thank you for the referral.
XXXXXXXXX
