## Abstract ## Purpose To confirm the neuromuscular integrity of the rotator cuff and to investigate the effect of different contraction patterns on shoulder function, we sonographically analyzed dynamic contraction patterns of this muscle group. ## Methods Fifty supraβ and 50 infraspinatus musc
Rotator cuff tears are a common orthopedic problem. The portions of the cuff most commonly torn are accessible to sonographic examination with appropriate positioning of the shoulder. This study was undertaken to correlate the sonographic appearance of the pathologic rotator cuff with findings at th
Purpose. To determine the effect of decreasing the field of view (FOV) on the accuracy of MR for diagnosing rotator cuff tears. ## Material and methods. One hundred shoulder MR scans with surgical correlation were evaluated for the presence or absence of a cuff tear. The sensitivity and specifici
