Abstract

Objective: To visualise the anterior and posterior glenoid labrum with ultrasonography in healthy volunteers. Methods: An ultrasonographic examination of both the anterior and posterior glenoid labrum was performed on 60 shoulders belonging to 30 volunteers between 15 and 78 years of age. Results: With the technique applied, the anterior and posterior labrum were seen in all cases. The labral area was significantly larger in the anterior than in the posterior labra. No differences in cross sectional labral areas between the right and left shoulders or between age groups were found. Conclusion: Both the anterior and posterior glenoid labrum can be identified by ultrasonography.
