{Abstract}: UNASSIGNED: Standardized consensus-based radiological reports for shoulder instability may improve clinical quality, reduce heterogeneity, and reduce workload. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine important elements for the x-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) arthrography (MRA), and computed tomography (CT) report, the extent of variability, and important MRI views and settings.
UNASSIGNED: An expert panel of musculoskeletal radiologists and orthopedic surgeons was recruited in a three-round Delphi design. Important elements were identified for the x-ray, MRA, and CT report and important MRI views and setting. These were rated on a 0-9 Likert scale. High variability was defined as at least one score between 1-3 and 7-9. Consensus was reached when ≥80% scored an element 1-3 or 7-9.
UNASSIGNED: The expert panel consisted of 21 musculoskeletal radiologists and 15 orthopedic surgeons. The number of elements identified in the first round was seventeen for the x-ray report, 52 for MRA, 21 for CT, and 23 for the MRI protocol. The number of elements that reached consensus was five for x-ray, twenty for MRA, nine for CT, and two for the MRI protocol. High variability was observed in 76.5% (n = 13) x-ray elements, 85.0% (n = 45) MRA, 76.2% (n = 16) CT, and 85.7% (n = 18) MRI protocol.
UNASSIGNED: Substantial variability was observed in the scoring of important elements in the radiological for the evaluation of anterior shoulder instability, regardless of modality. Consensus was reached for five elements in the x-ray report, twenty in the MRA report, and nine in the CT report. Finally, consensus was reached on two elements regarding MRA views and settings.
