If the applied load exceeds the physiological capacity of the rotator cuff, the effect may be tendon upregulation. The first stage may be reactive tendinopathy and is predominantly seen in an acutely ...

Introduction The tissue changes associated with spectrum of rotator cuff tendinopathy are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to describe the tissue characteristics of the onset and ...

Acromioclavicular joint (Figure 5a) and GHJ pathology were the most common x-ray findings (both 17%) and calcification involving the rotator cuff was reported in 13% of subjects (Figure 5b).
