Shoulder Motion Guided Patient Diagnostic and Treatment Classification

Completed

Conditions studied: Rotator Cuff Shoulder Syndrome and Allied Disorders

In brief

The investigators purpose is to determine the ability of a low cost, currently available imaging technique to predict shoulder movement disorders and the location of shoulder disease based on motion analysis of subjects with known shoulder disorders.

Who can join

Age: 18 and older, up to 65. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Normal subjects with normal normal shoulder movement and function will be included, age and gender matched to symptomatic subjects.
• Symptomatic subjects will be included if visual shoulder movement deviates from what might be considered normal; they are experiencing shoulder pain with movement, and clinical examination is consistent with soft tissue cumulative trauma to the soft tissues (rotator cuff disease).
• Clinical MR imaging will be used to confirm rotator cuff disease, subacromial bursitis, and/or bicipital tendinitis.

You may not qualify if…

• Age outside the accepted range. Contraindications to radiation exposure (pregnancy or possible pregnancy, other recent substantive radiation exposures (CT scanning, treatments involving radiation). Subjects unable to move through at least 90 degrees of shoulder motion will also be excluded.
