TEACHING POINTS

The purpose of this exhibit is to: 1. Review the clinically relevant anatomical and embryological features of the scapula and their implications. 2. Describe clinical features of scapular pathologies. 3. Highlight the radiographic characteristics of a wide spectrum of pathologies involving the scapula. 4. Characterize and highlight the value of cross-sectional imaging in detection of various pathologies of the scapula which otherwise could be challenging to characterize using plain radiography. 5. Provide examples of CT and MR images for various pathologies. 6. Discuss the differential diagnosis and, overlap features, and how not to misdiagnose the lesions.
