ABSTRACT
RATIONALE AND

OBJECTIVES:

To determine the diagnostic accuracy and reproducibility of conventional MR imaging (MRI) of the shoulder in evaluating biceps pulley lesions using arthroscopy as the standard of reference.

METHODS:

In a retrospective study, MR examinations of 68 patients with arthroscopically proven torn or intact biceps pulley were assessed for the presence of pulley lesions by three radiologists. The following criteria were evaluated displacement of the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) relative to the subscapularis tendon (displacement sign), subluxation/dislocation of the LHBT, the integrity of the superior glenohumeral ligament (SGHL) and the coracohumeral ligament (CHL), lesions of the supraspinatus (SSP) and subscapularis (SSC) tendons adjacent to the rotator interval, presence of biceps tendinopathy and subacromial bursitis.

RESULTS:

There were 42 patients with pulley lesions in the study group. Conventional MR imaging showed an overall sensitivity of 95.2%, 88.1% and 92.9%, a specificity of 61.5%, 73.1%, and 80.8% and an accuracy of 82.4%, 82.4% and 88.2% in the diagnosis of pulley lesions. Interobserver agreement was substantial (multirater k = 0.75). Biceps tendinopathy (97.6%, 95.2%, 97.6%), defects of the SGHL (86.3%, 81.0%, 88.1%) and the displacement sign (88.1%, 81.0%, 85.7%) were the most sensitive diagnostic criteria. Subluxation/dislocation of the LHBT was insensitive (78.6%, 42.9%, 33.3%), but specific (69.2%, 100,0%, 96.2%).

CONCLUSION:

In the diagnosis of pulley lesions, conventional MR imaging is reproducible and shows high sensitivity and accuracy but moderate specificity.
