Introduction

Many literatures regarding more specific tests to diagnose the supraspinatus tendon injuries and the best rehabilitation methods to strengthen the supraspinatus have been published. However, conflicting results have been reported. 2-deoxy-2-[18F] fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has been recently used to assess skeletal muscle activities in various fields.

Purpose

To evaluate & compare the metabolic activities of deltoid & rotator cuff muscles after the full-can & empty-can exercises using PET-CT.
