Abstract

Diagnosis of lesions of pararticular tissue is an actual problem of traumatology and orthopedics. The shoulder joint belongs to the most vulnerable parts of the motor apparatus. Damage to the rotator cuff of the shoulder (RMP) is a complex diagnostic task, including clinical, radiological and morphological studies. Diagnosis of complete tendon ruptures does not cause difficulties in clinical examination, while partial ruptures complicate clinical evaluation. Due to the complexity of the anatomy of the rotator cuff, its ultrasound examination is a difficult task [1-3]. The method is considered an operator dependent. However, the trained specialist can achieve high accuracy of the method [4,5].
