To clarify their usefulness in screening massive rotator cuff tear, routine radiographs of the shoulder were compared in three groups: (1) shoulders with a massive rotator cuff tear (MRCT), (2) shoulders with a small full-thickness rotator cuff tear (SRCT), and (3) normal control shoulders. Two different statistical methods were employed to assess the gradation (order) of correlation in 83 shoulders (22 were MRCTs, 31 with SRCTs, and 30 controls). Superior migration of the humerus and deformity of the greater tuberosity showed by far the more significant contribution to MRCT than did other abnormalities. When the shoulders were screened for these two abnormalities, the sensitivity was 78% (21/27) and specificity was 98% (55/56).
为阐明其在筛查大面积肩袖撕裂中的作用，对三组患者的肩部常规X线片进行了比较：（1）大面积肩袖撕裂（MRCT）患者的肩部；（2）小面积全层肩袖撕裂（SRCT）患者的肩部；（3）正常对照肩部。采用两种不同的统计方法评估83例肩部（22例为MRCT，31例为SRCT，30例为对照）的关联程度（顺序）。与其他异常相比，肱骨上移和大结节畸形对MRCT的影响要显著得多。当对肩部进行这两种异常筛查时，敏感性为78%（21/（27）），特异性为98%（55/56）。
