Coronal oblique: from axial scout parallel to supraspinatus from subscapularis to infraspinatus
1. T1W/PDW FSE sequence
2. FS PDW FSE (preferred)/T2W FSE sequence/ modified STIR:
Sagittal oblique: from axial scout perpendicular to supraspinatus from scapular neck to deltoid
1. T2W FSE +/- FS
2. axial T2*W GE
Axial:
1. PDW FSE (+/- FS) sequence
Parameters:
FOV 14-16 cm
Slice thickness 2-3mm
512x512 matrix
Tip:
To avoid metallic artefacts, and use FSE and STIR and avoid GE/FS techniques
