The shoulder joint has a wide breadth of derangements that can occur with sports activity. Whether the mechanism of injury is acute or the sequela of repetitive microtrauma, recent advances in musculoskeletal imaging and the understanding of athletic shoulder trauma will hopefully steer the clinician and radiologist alike to the proper diagnosis. Injury is inevitable. When it occurs, the clinician cognizant of the current concepts and protocols in the imaging of shoulder injury will be better prepared to diagnose and subsequently treat these disorders.
