Correlation of Ultrasound Findings With Clinical Stages and Impairment in Adhesive Capsulitis of the Shoulder

Abstract

The ultrasound parameters associated with structural changes were correlated with clinical characteristics of adhesive capsulitis. Thickened CHL, RI, and AR were observed in affected shoulders. The cutoff values of 2.2 mm for CHL thickness and 4 mm for AR thickness can be used as cutoff diagnostic values for adhesive capsulitis.
