Check out our latest article in Radiology here 👉doi.org/10.1148/radiol… We discuss the latest MRI techniques for assessing the #shoulder and rotator cuff muscles and explore advanced methods for quantifying muscle degeneration @FeuerriegelG @derbalgrist @radiology_rsna #MSKrad

How much can MRI reveal about rotator cuff health? 💪🧲This study by @FeuerriegelG, @SutterBalgrist and team shows how qualitative and quantitative MRI assess fatty degeneration and muscle atrophy, offering key clues for outcomes. #MSK #Radiology #MRI pubs.rsna.org/doi/10.1148/ra…

While #MRI performs best for osteomyelitis, #DECT with #BME and fat maps is a viable diagnostic alternative to detect osteomyelitis in patients who cannot undergo MRI. 👇 pubs.rsna.org/doi/10.1148/ra… @DrLindaMoy @RadiologyEditor @VChernyakMD @RITEditor #RadInTraining

For patients with #osteomyelitis who cannot undergo #MRI, can #DECT (Dual Energy CT) be the solution? Check it in this #Tweetorial! #RadInTraining 👉pubs.rsna.org/doi/10.1148/ra… @DrLindaMoy @RadiologyEditor @VChernyakMD @RITEditor
