Fig. 4From: Magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of the correlation between calcific tendinitis and rotator cuff injuryCalcific tendinitis of supraspinatus tendon combined with tear at attachment and tendon contracture at the broken end. Note Female, 43 years old, with shoulder periarthritis. A T2-SPAIR oblique coronal position, B PDW-SPAIR oblique sagittal position, C T2-SPAIR axial position: low-signal calcification can be seen in tendon at attachment of nodule in supraspinatus tendon and focal edema signals can be seen inside the tendon, irregular tear of tendon at attachment of nodule, and the tear range covers the tendon in the calcified area, accompanied by tendon contracture at the broken endBack to article page
