Diagnostic accuracy of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging for detecting subscapularis tendon tears: a diagnostic test study

Subscapularis tendon tears

Diagnostic Accuracy of Contrast and Noncontrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging

46 Background: Superior labral anterior posterior (SLAP) lesions are infrequent injuries, 47 and diagnosis by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is difficult and controversial. 48 Hypothesis: Based on our clinical experience, the accuracy of the MRI to diagnose a 49 SLAP lesion is less than previously reported. 50 Study Design: Diagnostic Retrospective Study 51 Methods: Between January 2006 and D...

Diagnostic accuracy in detecting tears in the proximal biceps tendon using standard nonenhancing shoulder MRI

BACKGROUND There is a paucity of data in the literature evaluating the performance of noncontrast MRI in the diagnosis of partial and complete tears of the proximal portion of the long head of the biceps (LHB) tendon. The objective of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of noncontrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) compared to arthroscopy for the diagnosis of pathology involving the intra...

Diagnostic Methods Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging was performed in 14 patients with intracavitary cardiac tumors diagnosed by echocardiography. Except in the patients whose echocardiograms were diagnostic of atrial myxomas, this modality contributed important additional anatomic information regarding the tumor's relationship to the normal intracardiac structures and/or its extension to the adjacent vascular and ...
