What to know about deltoid pain
The deltoid is a large muscle responsible for lifting the arm and giving the shoulder its range of motion. Pain in this area may be due to issues like overuse or injury.
X-ray analytics in motion: Dynamic 3D diagnosis for unstable shoulders
After a shoulder injury has been treated, patients are often left with a feeling of insecurity—many of them report that their shoulder "doesn't hold" or "slips out easily." When diagnosing shoulder instabilities, doctors often have to rely on these subjective assessments. The reason: Conventional imaging methods do not capture the movement of the shoulder.
Understanding the Key Differences Between Abduction and Adduction
Abduction and adduction are shoulder and hip movements that occur in the body's frontal plane—an imaginary line that divides the body into front and back halves. They're essential for stability and injury prevention in your shoulders, pelvis, and lower back.
What happens to the elbow 15 years after a radial head prosthesis? A clinical and imaging long-term follow-up study.
Radial head arthroplasty (RHA) has increasingly become the standard treatment for non-reconstructable radial head fractures, especially in young active patients where long-lasting function restoration is of paramount importance. However, long-term evidence of the results over time is still scarce. The purpose of this study was to document the long-term outcomes of RHA for acute radial head fractures.
