Abstract. The study aims to explore the possibilities of magnetic resonance (MR) arthrography in detecting lesions of glenoid labrum of shoulder joint. We present the results of examinations of the patients with instability of the shoulder joint. These examinations were carried out by means of a MR tomography using a high-field MR-tomograph with magnetic field intensity of 1.5 and 3Tl. The results of the MRI diagnosis were compared with intraoperative data of diagnostic arthroscopy.
Definitive diagnosis allows us to define further patient management, to correct surgery planning, to decrease sick-lists duration and improve quality of patient’s life.

Keywords: the shoulder, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, glenohumeral joint instability, impingiement syndrome, the glenoid labrum
