Evaluation of MRI in radiotherapy of humeroscapular periarthritis.
Seventy-seven patients with humeroscapular periarthritis prospectively underwent MRI before radiotherapy.
Six months after radiotherapy, 34% of the patients had achieved complete pain relief, 35% major pain relief. Twenty percent had only slight improvement and 12% no improvement. Positive correlation of radiotherapy outcome and MRI findings could be shown for acute tendinitis, erosions, and complete and incomplete ruptures of the supraspinatus tendon.
Radiotherapy is highly effective in the treatment of humeroscapular periarthritis. The indication can be improved using MRI.
评估MRI在肩周炎放射治疗中的作用。
77例肩周炎患者在放射治疗前前瞻性地接受了MRI检查。
放射治疗6个月后，34%的患者疼痛完全缓解，35%的患者疼痛明显缓解。20%的患者仅有轻微改善，12%的患者无改善。对于急性肌腱炎、侵蚀以及冈上肌腱的完全和不完全断裂，放射治疗结果与MRI表现呈正相关。
放射治疗在肩周炎治疗中非常有效。使用MRI可改善治疗指征。
