Muscle fat content in the intact infraspinatus muscle correlates with age and BMI, but not critical shoulder angle
2019
Purpose
Muscle fat content of the rotator cuff increases after a tear. In the healthy rotator cuff, the influence of age, body mass index (BMI) and critical shoulder angle (CSA) on muscle fat content is unknown. The primary aim was to correlate muscle fat content with age, BMI and CSA. The secondary aims were (1) to correlate muscle fat content in the entire muscle and slice Y (most lateral sagittal slice with scapular spine) and (2) assessed the reliability for CSA measurement in MRI.
