Introduction
The shoulder, a very complex joint, offers a wide range of pathologies. Intraarticular abnormalities and rotator cuff injuries are mainly assessed and diagnosed by magnetic resonance arthrography (MRA). In contrast to this well-established gold standard, high-resolution ultrasound (US) offers an additional easy and excellent modality to assess the shoulder joint. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate in which anatomic structures and pathologies comparable results of US and MRA could be achieved.
Materials and methods
In this IRB-approved prospective study 67 patients with clinically suspected labral lesions, rotator cuff rupture, or injury of the long head of the biceps (LHB) tendon were enrolled. Each participant was examined with high resolution US, and directly followed by MRA at 3 Tesla with a standard sequence protocol. To evaluate the agreement of the diagnostic performance between US and MRA a weighted kappa statistic was used.
Results
Both of the investigated modalities yielded a moderate to almost perfect agreement in assessing a wide range of shoulder joint pathologies. For the rotator cuff, consistency was found in 71.64% for the supraspinatus tendon, in 95.52% for the infraspinatus tendon, in 83.58% for the subscapularis tendon, and in 98.51% for the teres minor tendon.
The diagnostic accuracy between both modalities was 80.60% for the LHB tendon, 77.61% for the posterior labroligamentous complex, 83.58% for the acromioclavicular joint, and 91.04% for the assessment of osseous irregularities and impaction fractures.
Conclusions
High resolution US is a reliable imaging modality for the rotator cuff, the LHB tendon, and the acromioclavicular joint, so for these structures we recommend a preference for US over MRA based on its diagnostic accuracy, comfortability, cost effectiveness, and availability. If the diagnosis remains elusive, for all other intraarticular structures we recommend MRA for further diagnostic assessment.
