The acromion in supraspinatus outlet and Rockwood caudal tilt views from three-dimensional computed tomography scan of the shoulder

ConclusionThe classification of acromion morphology under Three-dimensional computed tomography in the supraspinatus outlet view has poor reliability. The Rockwood caudal tilt view model results in moderate-to-almost-perfect reliability that can be developed to the plain radiographic classification to determine the need for acromioplasty in rotator cuff surgery.
