Calcific Tendonitis has a dynamic pathogenesis, which can be associated with the overuse of the limb. It is usually diagnosed by ultrasound examination, but it is also known to be related to the ultrasound operator’s method and non-univocal interpretation criteria, which may result in misidentification of calcific deposits. Taking a sample of a overhead athletes’ (Volleyball players) diagnostic results, obtained by two different operators, will be compared and commented.
La tendinopatia calcifica di spalla ha una patogenesi dinamica che si può associare a sovraccarico funzionale. La diagnosi è in genere ecografica ma la nota operatore dipendenza insita nella metodica e non univoci criteri interpretativi possono comportare difformità nella individuazione di depositi calcifici. In un gruppo di atleti overhead (pallavolisti) si confrontano e si commentano i risultati diagnostici di due differenti operatori.

Abstract
Calcific Tendonitis has a dynamic pathogenesis, which can be associated with the overuse of the limb. It is usually diagnosed by ultrasound examination, but it is also known to be related to the ultrasound operator’s method and non-univocal interpretation criteria, which may result in misidentification of calcific deposits. Taking a sample of a overhead athletes’ (Volleyball players) diagnostic results, obtained by two different operators, will be compared and commented.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
