Ultrasonographic and MRI Explorations of Infraspinatus Muscle in Postero-superior Rotator Cuff Tear

France3 participantsStarted 2020-11-24

Plain-language summary

The project aims to evaluate the contribution of texture analysis on MRI sections, and the technical feasibility, reproducibility, and clinical relevance of quantitative ultrasound and elastography to characterize the composition and volume of infraspinatus muscle in postero-superior rotator cuff tears. The perspectives are to optimize the imaging to allow a quantitative, objective and reproducible analysis of the muscle tissue and its characteristics.
