A comparison of conventional ultrasonography and arthrosonography in the assessment of cuff integrity after rotator cuff repair.

CONCLUSIONS: It was found that the integrity assessment of the repaired rotator cuff by ultrasonography must be guarded against and that arthrosonography is an effective alternative method in the postoperative integrity assessment. Also, an arthrosonography seems to be a suitable modality to replace the conventional ultrasonography. PMID: 25177461 [PubMed - in process]
