Unexplained Shoulder Pain in a Weightlifter.
Holder, Lawrence E.; Michael, Roger H.
Physician and Sportsmedicine, v16 n6 p90-92,97 Jun 1988
This case report describes how a weightlifter's shoulder pain was diagnosed using radionuclide imaging. This technique is valuable because it detects increased vascularity or metabolic activity of lesions long before such changes can be seen on plain radiographs or other imaging modalities. (Author/JL)
