MRI Shoulder – Magnetic resonance imaging examination for shoulder pain, stiffness or suspected injury

The shoulder joint is the most mobile joint in the body – a complex structure where the humerus meets the shoulder blade, surrounded by tendons, ligaments, joint capsule and muscles. Precisely because of its mobility, the shoulder is particularly vulnerable to overload, inflammation and injuries that can affect both everyday function and sleep quality.

With a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination of the shoulder, you get a very detailed image of the internal structures of the joint, including the rotator cuff tendons, joint capsule, labrum, cartilage and soft tissues. MRI is painless, completely radiation-free and provides superior imaging diagnostics for complex shoulder problems – especially when previous examinations have not provided clear answers.

When is an MRI of the shoulder recommended?

A shoulder MRI should be considered in cases of pain that affects mobility, in cases of trauma, or if you suspect an injury that is not visible on a regular X-ray. It is a central part of the investigation for long-term or recurring shoulder problems.

  • Long-term or new-onset shoulder pain that has not responded to treatment
  • Limited mobility or stiffness in the shoulder joint
  • Weakness in the arm or difficulty lifting the arm
  • Pain at night that disrupts sleep, especially when changing positions
  • Suspected tendon injury (e.g. rotator cuff tear) after a fall or overload
  • Repeated shoulder dislocations or instability
  • Clicking sounds, locking, or a feeling that the shoulder is "jumping out of joint"

MRI is also particularly useful before surgery, to assess the extent of damage or inflammation, and when there is suspicion of deeper joint involvement that cannot be seen with ultrasound or X-ray.

MRI is often used when the following shoulder conditions are suspected

  • Rotator cuff injury – partial or complete rupture of the tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint
  • Impingement (impingement syndrome) – where tendons or bursae are pinched during lifting
  • Biceps tendon injury – tendinopathy or rupture of the long biceps tendon
  • Bursitis (subacromial or subdeltoid bursitis)
  • Labral injury – e.g. SLAP lesion, often after trauma or repeated throwing
  • Shoulder instability or previous dislocation (luxation)
  • Degenerative changes in the AC joint or glenohumeral joint (osteoarthritis)
  • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) – MRI can show inflammation and thickened capsule

Book an MRI of the shoulder – get a referral immediately

An MRI of the shoulder is an effective and accurate way to investigate the cause of your shoulder problems. The examination is completely painless, takes about 20–30 minutes and provides high-resolution images without the use of radiation. The images are reviewed by a specialist in radiology, and you will receive a written report within a few days.

The most mobile extremities of the body are the arms, which consist of several joints, muscles and bones that together enable both power and precision. The upper arm runs down from the shoulder to the elbow, where the humerus meets the two bones of the forearm – the radius and ulna. The wrist and hand are extremely mobile and have fine motor skills, which makes it possible to grasp, write, point and perform other complex movements.

The muscles of the arms are divided into flexors (which bend) and extensors (which stretch), and nerves from the cervical spine control both sensation and movement. Blood vessels and tendons run along the entire arm, supplying each part with oxygen and nutrients. The nails, especially on the fingers, serve as protection and tools for sensation and precision. In summary, our arms are central to how we interact with our surroundings.

After your order, we will send a referral for your MRI scan. Before that, you will have a brief consultation with a referring physician who will review your medical history and symptoms. After the consultation, your referral will be forwarded to the radiology clinic.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a safe method for obtaining detailed images of the body's organs, tissues, and joints using a strong magnetic field and radio waves – completely without radiation.

Things to consider before the examination:

  • Clothing and items: You will be asked to remove clothing with metal, jewelry, watches, hearing aids, and other items that may be affected by the magnetic field.
  • Metal in the body: Inform the medical staff if you have a pacemaker, implants, metal clips, artificial joints, or other metal objects in your body.
  • Pregnancy: Notify the staff if you are pregnant or suspect that you might be.
  • Contrast agent: In some cases, a contrast agent is used to enhance image quality. You will be informed about any preparations or possible side effects if applicable.

After your MRI scan is completed, the images are reviewed by a specialist in radiology. The radiologist interprets the images based on the clinical question stated in your referral and prepares a medical report for the referring physician.

The referring physician from our team will then review the report and provide you with a written medical assessment and guidance.

If the examination reveals any abnormalities or findings, we will ensure that you are either referred to an appropriate healthcare provider or receive advice on suitable follow-up – all of this is included in the price.

Many modern pacemakers are MRI-compatible, but not all. This must always be checked before the examination.

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is a scan that provides detailed images of the structures in the shoulder, including muscles, tendons, cartilage, and bones.

A shoulder MRI is used to detect changes, injuries, or inflammation in the shoulder joint, for example in cases of pain, stiffness, or limited mobility.

A shoulder MRI can detect or confirm tendon injuries, cartilage damage, inflammation, and other changes in the shoulder joint.

Special preparations may be required before the examination, and the instructions for your specific MRI will be provided in your appointment letter. In some cases, a contrast agent may be used.

The examination usually takes between 30 and 60 minutes.
