Diffuse tendinitis of the supraspinatus muscle combined with calcific tendinitis, partial tear of the tendon at attachment of nodule, combined with hyperostosis of greater tuberosity of humerus and focal bone marrow edema. Note Female, 55 years old, with shoulder arthritis. A T2-SPAIR oblique coronal position, B PDW-SPAIR oblique sagittal position, C T2-SPAIR axial position: low-signal calcification can be seen in tendons at attachment of nodule in supraspinatus tendon and signs of focal edema can be seen inside the tendon, partial tear of the tendon at the attachment of nodule, and the range of the tear covers the tendon in the calcified area, combined with hyperostosis of greater tuberosity of humerus and focal bone marrow edema
