In this video, I share an interesting shoulder case where a clinician suspected PVNS ((Pigmented Villonodular Synovitis) after an ultrasound but needed more clarity.

I explain how MRI revealed lipoma arborescens in the subdeltoid bursa, using the presence of fat to distinguish it from other conditions.

Hi, I’m PD Dr. med. Christoph Agten, an MSK radiologist and mentor. I've published 40+ research papers in top MSK journals, written the bestselling book SPEED MSK, and completed MSK fellowships in Zurich and New York. As a full-time teleradiologist specializing in MSK MRI, I started this channel to help radiologists around the world master MSK.
