Clinical and cadaveric studies have also demonstrated that SWE evaluation of supraspinatus muscle highly correlates with MRI-based Goutallier classification, but the absolute values varied among studies, suggesting high individual variability of supraspinatus stiffness. The purpose of the presentation was about the quantitative verification the regional stiffness of the supraspinatus muscle in normal adults using SWE.
