MR imaging (MRI) of the shoulder is the method of choice
in clinical practice. In common use is MRI with field
strength of 1.5T and 3T and the normal anatomic
structures are readily identifiable in these field
strength. But especially lesions or fiber structures are
difficult to localize. With special coil elements 7T MRI
offers the potential to increase the identification of
capillary structures and this even with a higher spatial
resolution in submilimeter compartment.
