Abstract:
Background Rotator cuff tears are common and not well-understood shoulder problems. Structural and mechanical inhomogeneity of the supraspinatus tendon complicates accurate prediction of risk of tear propagation and may affect appropriate clinical treatment. Hypothesis We propose that interactions between the supraspinatus and infraspinatus tendons are critical to load bearing at the glenohumeral joint and warrant investigation.

Introduction Shear wave elastography ultrasound is a relatively new technique that evaluates the tissue elasticity by applying an acoustic radiation force impulse. It is undetermined how reliable this modality is in assessing rotator cuff tendons. The aim of this study, therefore, was to evaluate the reliability of shear wave elastography ultrasound to assess the stiffness of normal and tendinopathic supraspinatus tendons.

Supraspinatus calcifying tendinosis is an uncommon finding in dogs. Although its radiographic appearance has been described previously, radiographs alone do not provide detailed information about the tendon parenchyma. Tendon ultrasonography has been widely applied for the diagnosis of human tendinosis, but it remains underused in dogs. This article reviews the ultrasonographic technique and variable appearance of canine supraspinatus calcifying tendinosis observed in 33 tendons. The ultrasonographic findings are described.

Chapter 37 discusses calcific hydroxyapatite deposition disease (HADD). Hydroxyapatite (HA) crystal deposition disease is a systemic disease of unknown etiology that is caused by periarticular and/or intraarticular deposition of HA crystals. The shoulder is the most commonly involved joint with calcification in the supraspinatus tendon, but not all patients with HADD are symptomatic. Radiography is the main diagnostic tool for HADD, which may show calcifications of varying size and shape in the periarticular tendons, bursae, and joint capsule with joint destruction. Ultrasound can be useful in evaluation and image-guided treatment of calcific tendinitis.

Abstract:
Non-invasive diagnostic imaging methods for diagnosis of pathological conditions is increasingly gaining popularity resulting from speedy and effective recovery during follow up in several clinical trials. The accuracy of the diagnosis depends on the experience and knowledge of physicians conducting the trial. In such scenario, the need for quantitative measures for details such as shape and size of tissue can assist physicians for better intuitive understanding of tissue and its pathologies. Computer aided diagnosis (CAD) tool incorporating methods for segmentation, texture analysis and area computation can increase the accuracy of diagnosis by providing quantitative analysis of the image. This chapter briefly describes issues and challenges for building the CAD tool followed by brief description about the methods involved. The methods are validation are also discussed briefly. To summarize the work, brief discussion about a new software or CAD tool for diagnosis of pathologies supraspinatus tendon with the help of ultrasound images is provided.

Tendon injuries and chronic pain, known as tendinopathy, are extremely common in supraspinatus and Achilles tendons. Despite their prevalence, the pathogenesis of these conditions is poorly understood. One of most common cited factors for injuries to the rotator cuff tendons is “impingement”, namely, mechanical compression of the supraspinatus tendon by the overlying coracoacromial arch [1]. To date, few studies have investigated the molecular processes underlying this condition.

High localized stresses can develop at the interface between dissimilar materials; their attachment is therefore a major engineering challenge.

While natural development leads to a strong and tough enthesis, surgical reattachment and healing of tendon to bone often fails [3].

Abstract:
Rotator cuff tendon tears are common conditions which can alter shoulder joint function and over time, cause secondary damage to the surrounding tissues, including the cartilage and other remaining tendons. Glenohumeral joint stability is dependent on a dynamic balance between rotator cuff forces, in particular the subscapularis anteriorly and the infraspinatus posteriorly. An intact rotator cuff stabilizes the joint, allowing for concentric rotation of the humeral head on the glenoid. However, a massive rotator cuff tear involving the supraspinatus and infraspinatus may disrupt the normal bal
