Abstract
Objective
To study the correlation between scan orientation and the detectability of rotator cuff injury.
Methods
Different scan orientations of magnetic resonance imaging of the rotator cuff injury were analyzed in high magnetic field in 103 patients.
Results
The supraspinatus tendon and signal abnormities were obtained in 103 patients, the infraspinatus tendon and signal abnormities in 53 patients, subscapular tendon and signal abnormities in 18 patients, knolls tendon and signal abnormities in 15 patients. The oblique coronal MR imaging was clearest in supraspinatus tendon, while at the axial images was clearest in infraspinatus tendon.
Conclusion
Rotator cuff and the surrounding tissue injury could be clearly scanned in high magnetic field, the detectability of rotator cuff injury depended on different scan orientations of magnetic resonance imaging.
