Rotator Cuff Impingement: Correlation Between Findings on MRI and Outcome After Fluoroscopically Guided Subacromial Bursography and Steroid Injection

Abstract

Imaging-guided subacromial steroid injection may be of benefit in the short-term management of clinically and MRI-proven subacromial impingement, with 83% of 69 patients reporting symptom relief at 6-month follow-up evaluation. Patients with shorter duration of symptoms and minor-grade MRI findings have improved outcome.
