<p>Don&#8217;t let MRI of the shoulder SLAP you around! There is a range of normal variant presentation in this joint capsule, but with some guidance in detecting indirect signs and corollary findings, you can make a lot of headway toward eliminating needless uncertainty in your reporting and confidently giving a well-reasoned differential.</p>
