INTRODUCTION
• Shoulder Is one of the most sophisticated and complicated joint of the body with great range of movements.
• A series of complex ligaments and muscles help in stability.
• Different pathologies especially related to rotator cuff are encountered in patients presenting with shoulder pain.
![Page 3: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
INTRODUCTION
• By assessing shoulder pain we ascertain integrity of
rotator cuff and extent of tear ,if any, in order to give
a plan to orthopedic surgeon for appropriate
treatment and further management.
• Shoulder ultrasound gives diagnostic sensitivities and
specificities in excess of 90%.
![Page 4: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Learning Objectives
• Implications of the morphologic features and extent of rotator cuff tears for glenohumeral joint mechanics, treatment, and prognosis.
• Identify injuries to adjacent structures that may accompany rotator cuff tears and discuss their implications for treatment and prognosis.
• Describe the value of imaging and evaluating the rotator cuff muscles.
![Page 5: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Learning Objectives
• Distinguish between the potential contributing factors to impingement syndrome.
• Determine if surgery is contraindicated.
• Radiologist must:(a) identify and evaluate cuff lesions that may compromise
glenohumeral joint function, taking into account functional anatomy.
(b) recognize imaging findings that decrease
the likelihood of favorable functional anatomic outcome after cuff repair.
(c) identify and describe imaging findings that will assist in selecting a repair technique.

Learning Objectives
• Tear dimensions, tear depth or thickness, tendon retraction, and tear shape.

Rotator cuff tendinopathy
Also known as -
• Rotator cuff tendinosis
• Definition – collagenous degeneration of rotator cuff tendons, most commonly supraspinatus (SST)
![Page 22: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Tendinopathy
Mucinousdegeneration (Microscopic tears in critical zone area)
• Intra substance in location delamination
• Begins at early 30 years
• Often asymptomatic
• At 60 tendon ruptures 60%
![Page 23: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Rotator cuff tendinopathy
• Thickened hypoechoic
• Tears directly visible
• Less sensitive for partial thickness tears
• Advantage – allows dynamic evaluation with pain correlation
![Page 24: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Rotator cuff tendinopathy
• Supraspinatus “tendinitis”. There is focal hypoechoic swelling of the more superficial fibers of supraspinatus insertion
![Page 25: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Rotator cuff tendinopathy
• Static imaging of the supraspinatus tendon show features of “tendinitis” which included tenderness, hypoechoic thickening of the insertional fibers (arrowheads)
![Page 26: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Rotator cuff tears• Clinical –
– Trauma (acute / chronic micro-trauma)
– Adults > 4o with impingement
– Collagen vascular diseases
– Partial more painful than complete tears !!!!
TYPES -
• Partial –– supraspinatus most common
– Types – bursal surface
interstitial (not seen on arthroscopy)
articular surface
• Complete –– supraspinatus most common
– Extends from bursal to articular surface
![Page 27: Role of ultrasound in clinical evaluation of shoulder](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032420/55a5126d1a28ab3d2d8b4749/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Dimensions of a Full-Thickness Tear
• small (1 cm),

Internal impingement
• Definition - Degeneration and tearing of posterior SSTand anterior infraspinatus tendons (undersurface /articular surface) due to impingement by postero-superior labrum and humeral head
• Postero-superior glenoid impingement (PSGI)
• Overhead throwing activities – athletes (throwers)
• Dynamic compression – occurs during abduction (> 120degrees), retropulsion and extreme external rotation(ABER)

Rotator cuff calcific tendinitis
• Calcium Hydroxyapatite deposition disease (HADD)• Calcifying bursitis
• Not typical Ca++ of degenerative disease of tendons, but crystallineCa++
• Pathology – deposition of Calcium Hydroxyapatite in RTC tendons
• Etiology – Avascular change, trauma, abnormal Ca++ metabolism
• Housewives and clerical workers more affected
• Location – SST > IST > TM > SSC
• Peri-articular soft tissues like capsule, bursae may be involved

• Bone Irregularity
Tendinosis
• Hypoechoic
• Ill defined
• Heterogenous
• Swollen
• Smooth Cortex

Tendinosis• Degeneration of long head of biceps
• Long head of biceps –– LHBT originates at supra glenoid tubercle– Passes through the antero-superior joint– Enters the humeral bicipital groove
• Chronic micro-trauma• Acute trauma (rare cause)• Accompanies RTC disease (especially impingement)• Common with subacromial impingement (30-60%
association)• Biceps tenosynovitis may accompany
