Distribution of bone and tissue morphological properties related to subacromial space geometry in a young, healthy male population
2016
Purpose
Particular bone and tissue morphological features of the scapula and humerus often exist disproportionately in persons with subacromial impingement syndrome (SAIS) and/or rotator cuff pathology. However, the origins of morphological variation, genetic or mechanistic, remain unclear. This research evaluated the distribution of and correlation between several bone and tissue characteristics associated with these pathologies amongst a baseline cohort population consisting of young, healthy, males. As well, the predisposition to SAIS was estimated by calculating the ratio (occupation ratio) of subacromial tissue thickness to minimum subacromial space width (SAS).
