Advancing high-resolution musculoskeletal ultrasound: a histology- and anatomy-driven approach for enhanced shoulder imaging. Part 2: Anterior and lateral shoulder.

Ultrasonography is a reliable imaging technique for the accurate diagnosis and evaluation of musculoskeletal disorders. Recent developments in ultrasound technology have significantly increased image resolution, making it possible to see anatomical features at almost microscopic dimensions. Current standards for standardized shoulder ultrasonography mostly depend on outdated machine types and configurations that may not fully utilize these high-resolution imaging capabilities.
