متن کاملRadiographic Study on the Acromion Index and Its Relationship with Rotator Cuff Tears.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the lateral projection of the acromion and rotator cuff tears (RCTs) in the Brazilian population. METHODS The lateral projection of the acromion was measured using anteroposterior radiographs of the shoulders, carried out with the glenoid cavity in absolute profile and the humeral head in the neutral position or with...
