54-year-old male with shoulder pain. Evaluate rotator cuff. ROTATOR CUFF: There is a full-thickness tear of the supraspinatus tendon at the level of its insertion on the greater tuberosity measuring approximately 16 mm in the AP dimension. There is less than 1 cm of separation of the tendon fibers of the supraspinatus. There is thickening and increased signal abnormality of the supraspinatus tendon consistent with moderate tendinosis. There is also associated tearing of the anterior fibers of the infraspinatus tendon. The supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles appear intact. The teres minor and subscapularis muscles and tendons appear intact.SUPRASPINATUS OUTLET: There is a small amount of fluid within the subacromial subdeltoid bursa.GLENOHUMERAL JOINT AND GLENOID LABRUM: Although this examination was not protocoled for evaluation of the glenoid labrum, there is increased linear signal abnormality traversing the posterior superior glenoid labrum which is suggestive of degenerative labral tearing.BICEPS TENDON: The long head of the biceps tendon appears intact. There is a small amount of circumferential fluid within the tendon sheath which may represent fluid extension from the glenohumeral joint.ADDITIONAL
1. Full-thickness tear of the rotator cuff as described above.2. Probable degenerative tearing of the posterior superior glenoid labrum.
