MRI Evaluation of Bipolar Bone Loss Using the On-Track Off-Track Method: A Feasibility Study

Abstract

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.
