Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine whether greater tuberosity morphology (1) could be measured reliably on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), (2) differed between patients with rotator cuff tears (RCT) compared to those without tears or glenohumeral osteoarthritis, or (3) differed between patients with rotator cuff repairs (RCR) that healed and those that did not.
