Diagnostic imaging of shoulder rotator cuff lesions

Abstract: RESUMOForam avaliadas rupturas de espessura total nos tendões do manguito rotador do ombro por ultra-sonografia (US) e ressonância magnética (RM). A correlação cirúrgica ou artroscópica foi obtida em 25 casos. A US foi realizada em 22 pacientes e a RM em 17 ombros sintomáticos. Foram obtidas sensibilidade, especificidade e eficiência de 80%, 100% e 90,9% para a US e 90%, 100% e 94,12% para a RM, respectivamente. No subgrupo de pacientes submetidos a ambos os métodos diagnósticos (16 casos), a correlação estatí… Show more

“…In order to perform standard measurements in the images, the section images, in which the anatomical structuring present above the glenoidal cavity and the humerus head were seen in the same ratio, were used. The MR imaging method was selected due to reports stating the reliability of this imaging method in the evaluation of muscle ruptures (5). Left shoulder magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of a total of 17 cases with rotator muscle rupture, 10 cases with partial rupture, and 7 cases with full thickness rupture were compared to 20 cases with normal shoulder MR images of who did not have any muscle pathology.…”

“…These modalities identify the causal factors, involved tendons and its extension into muscles which cannot be identified clinically. 7 In view of high prevalence of Rotator Cuff injuries and its diagnostic difficulties on clinical examination and high cost and less availability of MRI, this study was done to find out the utility of Ultrasonography as a diagnostic tool in Rotator Cuff Injuries…”
