Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging also seems to be a promising technique for shoulder pathology, including Rotator Cuff Tears. However, Magnetic resonance imaging is time‐consuming, expensive, and not readily available. On the other hand, due to the specialized expertise required for shoulder sonography and the long learning curve, sonography might be less available than Magnetic resonance imaging in some countries. 100 patients with traumatic shoulder injury or chronic shoulder pain that were clinically examined by orthopedician and highly suspective of rotator cuff tear were referred for USG and MR evaluation. Present study showed that Rotator cuff Injury are studied well on both USG and MRI and are well correlating. While USG can be used in emergency situation, MRI can be reserved for patient with stable condition.
