Abstract

Objective To analyze MRI features of the rotator cuff injury and to evaluate their clinical values in diagnosis of the rotator cuff injury. Methods MRI data of 36 cases with rotator cuff injury were retrospectively analyzed and compared with the outcomes of open surgery or arthroscopy. Results In all 36 patients,rotator cuff injury was showed on MRI images,with complete tear in 11 cases and partial tear in 25 cases. The accuracy rate was81. 8% in complete tears and 80. 0% in partial tears. Conclusion MRI can accurately diagnose rotator cuff injury and provide the information for clinical treatment.
