Ultrasonographic assessment for shoulder pain - 석회성건염 (calcific tendinitis) 가시위오목근에서흔하게발생하며골부착 1 cm 이내의위험대에잘발생한다 [4]. 석회화의단계에따라다양한초음파소견을보이는데, 약 79% 에서뚜렷한후음향음영 (postacoustic shadow) 을동반한고에코성병변, 14% 에서후음향음영이희미한고에코성병변, 7% 에서후음향음영이없는고에코성병변으로관찰된다 (Fig. 3). 윤활막염 (synovitis) 윤활막염의대표적초음파소견으로는삼출 (effusion) 과윤활막증식 (synovial proliferation) 이있다. 삼출은피하지방과비교하여비정상적인저에코성또는무에코성 ( 때로는동일에코이거나고에코일수도있는 ) 의관절내물질로, 이동과압박이가능하나도플러신호를보이지않는다 [3]. 어깨에서삼출은오목위팔관절의후면또는액와부에서가장잘 관찰된다 (Fig. 4). 윤활막증식은피하지방과비교하여비정상적인저에코성 ( 때로는동일에코이거나고에코일수도있는 ) 의관절내조직으로, 삼출과는달리이동하지않고도플러신호를보일수있는병변이다 [3]. 회전근개파열파열된두께에따라부분층 (partial-thickness) 파열과전층 (full-thichness) 파열로나뉘고, 부분파열은파열된부위에따라힘줄내 (intrasubstance), 윤활낭면 (bursal surface) 과연골면 (articular surface) 파열로나뉘며, 힘줄이큰거친면 (greater tuberosity) 에부착하는부위에서잘발생한다. 초음파소견으로는고에코성의균질한실타래에코가갑자기중단되어국소적인저에코성또는무에코성병변이존재하는것이탐촉 Figure 3.
