ELASTOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF THE SUPRASPINATUS TENDON IN DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS

ELASTOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF THE SUPRASPINATUS TENDON IN DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the mechanical properties of the supraspinatus tendon in different age groups using Supersonic Shearwave Imaging (SSI) elastography. Methods: We evaluated 38 healthy individuals of both genders, 20 being in the range of 20 to 35 years and 18 being over 60 years. The...
