Radiological Modalities in Frozen Shoulder Diagnosis: Role of MRI and US.

The article focuses on three medical imaging studies conducted at Ain Shams University Hospitals in Egypt. The first study investigates the correlation between fetal abdominal subcutaneous tissue thickness (FASTT), measured by ultrasound, and birth weight to predict small and large for gestational age (SGA and LGA) babies, finding FASTT to be a better predictor for LGA with specific cut-off values identified. The second study compares the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound (US) in detecting frozen shoulder, concluding that ultrasound is a cost-effective, accurate, and less invasive alternative suitable for most patients. The third study evaluates the diagnostic performance of 18F-labelled prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT imaging in detecting biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer after curative therapy, emphasizing its role in early detection to guide salvage treatment.
