Reason: Rotator cuff tear History: Shoulder pain ROTATOR CUFF: T2 hyperintense signal and thickening of the supraspinatus tendon indicates moderate tendinopathy with intact fibers. Globular T2 hyperintense signal and thickening is also seen at the attachment of the infraspinatus tendon, indicating mild tendinopathy.SUPRASPINATUS OUTLET: No significant abnormality noted.GLENOHUMERAL JOINT AND GLENOID LABRUM: There is globular hyperintense signal within the superior and inferior aspects of the glenoid labrum. Otherwise no gross abnormality is seen on this noncontrast exam.BICEPS TENDON: There is mild increased signal in the horizontal component of the biceps tendon. ADDITIONAL
1. Moderate tendinopathy of the supraspinatus tendon with intact fibers.2. Mild tendinopathy of the infraspinatus tendon.3. Degenerative changes of the glenohumeral and acromioclavicular joints as described above.
