US and MRI evidencing superficial surface tear (false-negative arthro-CT). US coronal view shows tear with retraction of the superficial fibers of the supraspinatus tendon (arrow). The image evidences a tense deep string which has maintained its fibrillar appearance (arrowhead) which permits exclusion of full-thickness tear. Coronal T2-weighted MRI with fat saturation shows tear with retraction of the superficial fibers of the supraspinatus tendon (arrow). Note the deep string visible also in the US image (arrowhead).
