Advantages of 3-dimensional Measurements for Supraspinatus Intramuscular Fatty Evaluation in Patients With Medium to Massive Rotator Cuff Tears: Comparison With a Single Sagittal Slice.

3D-FF indicated an inhomogeneous distribution of intramuscular fat by capturing all muscle and fat morphologic information. In patients with large and massive rotator cuff tears, 2D-FF of the supraspinatus was significantly higher than 3D-FF. 3D-FF was more reliable than 2D-FF for estimating fatty infiltration in the supraspinatus, with better intra- and interobserver agreement.
