The glenoid labrum ovoid mass (GLOM) sign (seen on MRI) is useful when a torn anterior glenoid labrum retracts superiorly. Seen typically on a T2 axial image through the glenohumeral joint as a low signal ovoid mass anterior to the glenoid labrum. Sometimes this can be the only sign of a torn labrum.
