Why the study?
Does MRI evaluation using the on-track off-track method accurately assess bipolar bone loss to predict engaging lesions in patients with anterior shoulder instability?
Does MRI evaluation using the on-track off-track method accurately assess bipolar bone loss to predict engaging lesions in patients with anterior shoulder instability?
MRI using the on-track off-track method is feasible for accurately assessing bipolar bone loss to guide preoperative stabilization procedures in anterior shoulder instability.
Supports MRI on-track off-track for bipolar bone loss assessment; leaves open prospective validation before clinical adoption in shoulder instability.
Our study showed that the on-track off-track method can be used in MRI to accurately assess the bipolar bone loss seen in patients with anterior shoulder instability for predicting the presence of engaging, or off-track, lesions. This information can be used preoperatively to help guide the type of stabilization procedure performed on patients with anterior shoulder instability.
