Extensibility of the supraspinatus muscle can be predicted by combining shear wave elastography and magnetic resonance imaging-measured quantitative metrics of stiffness and volumetric fat infiltration: A cadaveric study

A torn rotator cuff tendon will retract over time causing changes in muscle properties and decreasing its extensibility, or deformation. During surgery, large tensile loads are applied to bring the torn tendon to the footprint. Poor muscle extensibility and large tensile stresses at the repair might...
