Role of Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasonography in Evaluation of Chronic Non osseous Shoulder Pain.
Background: Chronic shoulder pain is a common clinical presentation. It is of osseous or non-osseous origin. In non-osseous shoulder pain, proper diagnosis is critical. Magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] is the standard diagnostic modality. However, it is expensive and not available in many medical ce...
