MRI Shoulder axial View Findings







We can diagnose any lesion in the following:


1-Tendons: As for subscapularis, infra spinatus and biceps in the groove.

2-Ligaments: As middle glenohumeral ligament.

3-Bones: Hill-Sack's injury which is a groove occur in the head of the humerus posteriorly due to anterior dislocation of the humeral head.








  • Bankart lesion (humeral head driven forward –> anterior labral detachment, capsule tear)
  • Hill-Sachs lesion (compression fracture at posterolateral margin of humeral head)
  • Possible associated fracture of proximal humerus, anterior glenoid and disruption of glenohumeral ligaments


4-Labrum: Anterior and posterior.

5-Bursa: Such as subscapularis and subcoracoid.


Subsubscapularis bursitis
Subcoracoid bursitis
