Less than 9.5-mm coracohumeral distance on axial magnetic resonance imaging scans predicts for subscapularis tear

Background: Diagnosis of subscapularis (SSC) tendon lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be challenging. A small coracohumeral distance (CHD) has been associated with SSC tears. This study was designed to define a specific threshold value for CHD to predict SSC tears on axial MRI scans. M...
