Summary

Primary Aims:

To assess the value of sonoelastography in the evaluation of supraspinatus tendon abnormalities.

Secondary Aims:

1. To assess the association between SWE and grades of tendon abnormalities on MRI (the standard imaging in the evaluation of rotator cuff abnormalities).
2. To help in reaching shear wave elastography cutoff value to determine tendinopathy and tear.

Conditions

  • Supraspinatus Injury

Interventions

DEVICE

sonoelastography

Sonoelastography examination\[10,11\] will be performed using (GE logiqs8,) device system with a high-frequency (a 5-12 MHz linearMHz) linear probe. The procedure will be carried out by a radiologist , who is blinded to the MRI results. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) \[12\] will be performed on the patients in our radiology department using a Philips Achieva 1.5 Tesla superconducting magnet (The Netherlands), shoulder joint MRI protocol included several imaging sequences, included coronal oblique T1 and T2 weighted fast spin-echo, coronal oblique proton density fat suppressed, oblique sagittal T2-weighted spin-echo and axial T1-weighted spin-echo Image evaluation will be conducted by experienced musculoskeletal radiologist, Then we correlate results of sonoelastography to that of MRI .
