Abstract:This study evaluates how far T2 mapping can identify arthroscopically confirmed pathologies in the long biceps tendon (LBT) and quantify the T2 values in healthy and pathological tendon substance. This study comprised eighteen patients experiencing serious shoulder discomfort, all of whom underwent magnetic resonance imaging, including T2 mapping sequences, followed by shoulder joint arthroscopy. Regions of interest were meticulously positioned on their respective T2 maps, capturing the sulcal portion of the L… Show more
“…T2 mapping has been studied for its capability to detect and quantify anomalies in the long biceps tendon (LBT) [16]. The research aimed to understand how effectively T2 mapping can identify arthroscopically confirmed LBT pathologies and measure T2 values in both healthy and damaged tendons.…”
