Ultrasonography (US) is an inexpensive, convenient, and effective tool that can be used to evaluate the shoulder. It does not expose the patient to harmful radiation and can be used to evaluate the musculoskeletal system dynamically. Additionally, US is not subject to metal artifacts when evaluating patients with previously placed hardware. Over the years, US has been found to be reliable and accurate for diagnosing rotator cuff tears (RCTs), despite its operatordependence. The usage of US for diagnosing RCTs in orthopedic practice varies depending on practitioners' familiarity with the exam and the availability of experienced technicians. The purpose of this article is to review the diagnostic accuracy of US for identifying RCTs.
超声检查（US）是一种廉价、便捷且有效的工具，可用于评估肩部。它不会使患者暴露于有害辐射，并且可用于动态评估肌肉骨骼系统。此外，在评估先前植入硬件的患者时，超声不受金属伪影的影响。多年来，尽管超声检查依赖操作者，但已发现其在诊断肩袖撕裂（RCT）方面可靠且准确。在骨科实践中，超声用于诊断RCT的情况因从业者对该检查的熟悉程度以及经验丰富的技术人员的可获得性而异。本文的目的是综述超声在识别RCT方面的诊断准确性。
