Technical considerations and potential advantages of musculoskeletal imaging at 3.0 Tesla.

abstract：:Balancing mobility and stability, the biomechanics of the shoulder provides optimal use of the thumb and hand. More than a glenohumeral joint, the shoulder complex consists of four joints and numerous muscles and ligaments. Injuries to the shoulder result from overuse, extremes of motion, and excessive forces. This re...
