This session will review pertinent anatomy and provocative exam maneuvers of the shoulder to identify inflammatory arthritis manifestations versus mechanical/degenerative and soft tissue injuries. The use of diagnostic ultrasonography in the evaluation of the shoulder to detect inflammatory and crystalline arthritides, and mechanical injuries will be illustrated.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe physical examination maneuvers to diagnose shoulder conditions
  • Recognize key anatomy and sonoanatomy used to diagnose inflammatory and mechanical conditions of the shoulder
  • Identify ultrasound findings for polymyalgia rheumatica and enthesitis in PsA/SpA
