CT arthrography of adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder: Are MR signs applicable?
Milena Cernya, Patrick Omoumia, Ahmed Larbi, Daniel Manicourt, Anne Perozziello, Frédéric Lecouvet, Bruno Vande Berg, B…This retrospective study investigated whether signs of adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) typically seen on MRI could also be identified using CT arthrography (CTA). Researchers compared CTA scans from 22 patients wi…

Non-contrast MRI diagnosis of adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder
Andrew S Chi, John Kim, Suzanne S Long, William B Morrison, Adam C ZogaThis study investigated whether a standard MRI without contrast dye could be used to reliably diagnose adhesive capsulitis, also known as frozen shoulder. Researchers reviewed MRIs for specific signs, such as a thickene…

Adhesive Capsulitis of the Shoulder Joint: Value of Glenohumeral Distance on Magnetic Resonance Arthrography
Kyu Hong Lee, Hee Jin Park, So Yeon Lee, In Young Youn, Eugene Kim, Jai Hyung Park, Se Jin ParkResearchers investigated a new way to help diagnose adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) using a specific type of MRI called MR arthrography. They measured the distance between the ball and socket of the shoulder joint…

A questionnaire survey of UK physiotherapists on the diagnosis and management of contracted (frozen) shoulder
Nigel C A Hanchard, Lorna Goodchild, Jackie Thompson, Tracey O’Brien, Dot Davison, Chris RichardsonThis survey of 289 UK physiotherapists explored how they diagnose and manage frozen shoulder. The results showed that diagnosis typically relies on assessing movement restriction, particularly passive external rotation.…
