BACKGROUNDRotator cuff disease is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain. In addition to history and physical examination, seve ral radiological techniques have been used to detect tears of the rotator cuff. Each has limitations and no clear consensus on the optimum diagnostic study has emerged. The radiological diagnosis of rotator cuff tears has traditionally been performed with arthrography and more recently with non-invasive techniques like ultrasonography and MRI. Aims and Objectives-1. To characterise the rotator cuff pathologies on high-resolution Ultrasound. 2. Confirm and correlate the Ultrasound and MRI findings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
