본 논문에서는 기존의 회전근개 건 파열 추출 방법을 개선하기 위하여 초음파 영상에서 환자 정보를 제거하여 ROI 영역을 추출한다. 추출된 ROI 영역에서 명암 대비를 강조하기 위해 기존의 사다리꼴 형태의 퍼지 스트레칭 기법에서 소속 함수를 개선한 퍼지 스트레칭 기법을 적용하여 힘줄과 연골 영역을 효과적으로 강조한다. 강조된 ROI 영역에서 Max-Min 이진화와 8방향 윤곽선 추적 기법 및 Monoton Cubic Spline 기법을 적용한 후에 라벨링 기법을 적용하여 힘줄 및 연골 영역을 추출한다. 추출된 힘줄과 연골 영역을 이용하여 회전근개 영역을 추출한다. 추출한 회전근개 영역에 SOM 기반 양자화 기법을 적용하여 회전근개 건 파열 영역을 추출한다. 제안된 회전근개 건 파열 영역 추출 방법을 다양한 초음파 회전근개 건 파열 영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 제안된 회전근개 건 파열 영역이 기존의 추출 방법보다 TPR 값이 증가되어 회전근개 건 파열 분석에 효과적인 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The interpretation of MRI of partial-thickness rotator cuff tears can be challenging. This review describes the anatomic considerations for diagnosing partial-thickness tears, especially supraspinatus and infraspinatus tendon and summarizes the classification of partial-thickness rotator cuff tears, as well as provides an overview on partial-thickness tears with delamination.

With increased development of patch graft, the number of repair using patch graft in massive rotator cuff tear has increased. Understanding characteristics of various patch graft might be helpful for selection of type of patch, and to improve the outcomes for the treatment of massive rotator cuff tears using patch grafts. Therefore, this paper reviews various studies dealing with clinical outcomes of rotator cuff repair using diverse patch grafts in massive rotator cuff tears.

Rotator cuff tears are a leading cause of shoulder pain in adults. Due to the increase in social activities, the number of patients complaining of shoulder pain is increasing, and interest in shoulder diseases is also increasing. With the development of ultrasound equipment, the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis are high, and it is used to diagnose rotator cuff tears in musculoskeletal disease. Ultrasound is recognized as a complementary method to MRI examination in rotator cuff tears. Therefore, this study aimed to find out the diagnostic usefulness of ultrasound and MRI examinations in the diagnosis of shoulder rotator cuff tears.A retrospective analysis was performed on 262 patients who were diagnosed with final rotator cuff damage by arthroscopy after completing ultrasound and MRI examinations. Sensitivity, feature, positive predictive value, image predictive value, and touch were disassembled for the test results. In addition, the degree of clavicular tear was scored and recorded in 5 stages. Ultrasound examination was similar to MRI examination results for both full-thickness and partial tears, and there was no statistically significant difference. Partial tear test results showed higher positive predictive value and accuracy than MRI test. In conclusion, ultrasound can be fully utilized as a screening test for rotator cuff disease, and it is thought that it will be selected and used clinically according to the patient's constitution and situation.

봄철 무리한 운동으로 발생하기 쉬운 어깨 통증. 어깨 통증을 단순 근육통으로 여기고 방치하면 일상생활이 어려울 수도 있다. 관절와순 파열과 회전근개 파열이 대표적이다. 관절와순 파열은 일반적으로 스포츠 손상이 원인으로 주로 젊은층에게 흔하며, 회전근개 파열은 퇴행성 변화 및 외상이 원인으로 중 장년층에서 흔히 발생한다.

Purpose: Not much is known about the obvious relationship between posteroinferior rotator cuff tear and biceps lesion. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of posteroinferior rotator cuff tear on a biceps lesions by comparing the rotator cuff tear and biceps lesions with the number of cuff tears and the degree of degeneration of the rotator cuff. Materials and Methods: 65 patients who underwent surgery for a posteroinferior rotator cuff tear from 2002 to 2009 were included as subjects. The study determined the factors (the number of cuff tears and the degree of degeneration as assessed by MRI) that affected biceps lesions and the kinematic stability of the rotator cuff. Results: Biceps lesion was noted 11 patients among the 51 patients with supraspinatus tendon tears and in 8 patients among the 14 patients with supraspinatus, infraspinatus or teres minor tendon tears, and there was a statistically significant difference between those two groups (p=0.0095). The number of cuff tears was proportional to biceps lesion with statistical significance (p=0.0095). Among the biceps lesions, SLAP II lesion showed a statistically different distribution according to the number of cuff tears (p=0.0073). The degeneration factors (Goutallier's classification and the tangent sign) had no correlations with biceps lesion. Conclusion: Posterosuperior cuff tear may affect biceps lesion. Especially, the number of cuff tears has a close relationship, but the degenerative indicators have no relationship with biceps lesion.
