Scapular height and width can predict the dimensions of the glenoid. In cases of glenoid bone loss or shoulder arthroplasty, the native normal glenoid dimensions can be determined from the scapular dimensions as visualized using a true scapular anteroposterior radiograph. The surgeon can use these preoperative parameters when performing glenoid reconstruction or shoulder arthroplasty.
