My son had the MRA (MRI with dye) and it was inconclusive as to exactly what was wrong. He was flown to Baltimore where the Division Chief of Sports Medicine and Shoulder Surgery (Dr. Cosgarea) at Johns Hopkins told him that until he went in he had no idea what the extent of the injury was. It turned out to be 3/4 of his labrum was torn which required 3 screws to fix. You would have thought an MRA would show that but it didn't.

As the others have stated, get a 2nd opinion by a surgeon who specializes in shoulders.

Best of luck.
