A shortcut review was carried out to establish whether ultrasonography was a reliable and accurate imaging modality to detect rotator cuff tears in adult patients. Four papers were found to be relevant to the clinical question following the below-described search strategies. The author, date and country of publication, patient group studied, study type, relevant outcomes, results and study weaknesses of those best papers are tabulated. It is concluded that ultrasound has a diagnostic accuracy high enough to detect full-thickness rotator cuff tears. It is, however, less accurate in detecting partial-thickness ruptures.
进行了一项简短综述,以确定超声检查是否为检测成年患者肩袖撕裂的可靠且准确的成像方式。按照下述检索策略,发现有四篇论文与该临床问题相关。将那些最佳论文的作者、发表日期、发表国家、研究的患者群体、研究类型、相关结果、研究结果及研究不足制成表格。结论是,超声具有足够高的诊断准确性来检测肩袖全层撕裂。然而,在检测部分厚度撕裂方面准确性较低。
