Design: We reviewed the sonographic reports of 1352 patients with suspected shoulder disorders between January 2011 and June 2012. The associations between BPE and rotator cuff abnormalities were explored by logistic regression and adjusted for age, sex, affected side, and clinical diagnosis of frozen shoulder. The receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed to assess the ability of BPE to discriminate certain rotator cuff pathologies. Maximal Youden indexes were used to define the best cutoff points, which were later applied on the validation data set for its discriminative ability. Results: Sonographic findings of subscapularis tendinopathy, subdeltoid bursitis, supraspinatus full-thickness tear, and supraspinatus articular-sided partialthickness tear were found to be associated with BPE. The cutoff values of BPE to differentiate those lesions were 1.0, 0.9, 1.5, and 1.5 mm, respectively. Validation of the diagnostic performance of BPE at defined thicknesses yielded good negative predictive values for the aforementioned rotator cuff abnormalities. Conclusions: Sonographically detected BPE seems to be in association with certain rotator cuff pathologies, and it can be utilized as an adjuvant finding to rule out such rotator cuff abnormalities. |
