    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The diagnosis of glenohumeral instability is based on the patient's history and physical examination. The main objective in using imaging techniques is to define the tpye and extent of the underlying pathology for therapeutic planning. Plain radiography is the initial step in the diagnostic procedure but can miss typical lesions of the glenohumeral joint structures. CT arthrography and MR imaging offer great sensitivity and accuracy for the detection of traumatic abnormalities of the labral-capsular complex, fractures of the glenoid rim and Hill-Sachs lesions. The advantages and pitfalls of both imaging techniques are discussed.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die Diagnose einer glenohumeralen Instabilität wird in den meisten Fällen schon durch die Anamnese und die klinische Symptomatik gestellt. Aufgabe der bildgebenden Verfahren ist es, Art und Ausmaß der zugrundeliegenden Pathologie exakt zu dokumentieren und eine Entscheidungshilfe für das therapeutische Vorgehen zu liefern. Konventionelle Röntgenaufnahmen in gut eingestellten Projektionen stellen unverändert die Grundlage jeder bildgebenden Diagnostik dar, wobei jedoch typische pathologische Befunde insbesondere am Kapsel-Band-Apparat dem radiologischen Nachweis entgehen. Mit der Nativ-CT gelingt der eindeutige Nachweis von knöchernen Verletzungen am Pfannenrand und am Humeruskopf. Als etabliertes Verfahren zur Beurteilung des kapsulolabralen Komplexes gilt die CT-Arthrographie. Nachteile sind die Gelenkpunktion und der vermehrte Zeitaufwand. Als Alternative bietet sich die Magnetresonanztomographie an. Sie liefert als nicht-invasive Untersuchung mit hohem Gewebekontrast in beliebigen Schnittebenen in der Diagnostik des Labrums und der Gelenkkapsel eine ähnlich hohe Treffsicherheit, kann jedoch bei Formvarianten und fehlendem Gelenkerguß diagnostische Schwierigkeiten aufwerfen. Der Stellenwert der verschiedenen Verfahren wird diskutiert.

    Notes: Abstract The role of conventional arthrography versus computed tomography (CT) arthrography of the glenohumeral joint using iotrolan was evaluated in patients with different shoulder problems. In addition, a diagnostic combination of conventional and CT arthrography was compared with magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography of the glenohumeral joint. Two diagnostic protocols were used. Protocol 1: conventional followed after 30 min by CT arthrography of 37 joints using a double contrast technique with iotrolan 300. Protocol 2: conventional followed after 90–180 min by MR arthrography in 20 patients using a single-contrast technique with 10 ml iotrolan 300 and 1 ml gedopentetate dimeglumine 500 mM. Ten patients also underwent CT arthrography. Neither patient group experienced contrast-related complications. Image quality was good for all conventional arthrograms, excellent in 45/47 CT arthrograms and good in 20 MR arthrograms. CT and MR arthrography were diagnostically valuable in many patients. We conclude that glenohumeral joint evaluation should be perfomed first using conventional or CT arthrography. Iotrolan has proven to be highly reliable and safe in these applications. Iotrolan in combination with gadopentetate dimeglumine, permits MR arthrography following completion of the standard examinations if necessary.

    Notes: Abstract. The aim of our study was to evaluate a mammography unit capable of magnification of up to fourfold at an equivalent or lower dose than with current systems. A prototype mammography tube with an electron-beam-focusing technology resulting in a focal spot size of 40–120 μm was combined with a highly intensifying screen-film system. To evaluate contrast-detail resolution, phantom radiographs were performed with the prototype magnification mammography system using a magnification factor of 1.7 for survey views and a magnification factor of 4.0 for spot views. They were compared with unmagnified survey views and magnification spot views (magnification factor 1.9) of a state-of-the-art mammography system. The radiation exposure was measured and mean glandular doses were calculated. The contrast-detail resolution with both prototype (m = 1.7) and conventional (m = 1.1) survey views was equivalent while the entrance dose and the mean glandular dose were approximately 50 % lower with the prototype. For spot views, the contrast-detail resolution was substantially higher for the prototype than for conventional magnification while the dose was equivalent. Dose reduction and improved detail resolution are possible with this new technology.
