Abstract

The rotator interval corresponds to a defined triangular shaped anatomical region at the anterosuperior portion of the shoulder where specific pathological processes may occur. First, the morphological and functional anatomy of the region will be reviewed. Then, the role of different imaging modalities will be described along with pathological imaging features. Normal structures of the rotator interval may be imaged with modern techniques, including MR and CT arthrography. On the other hand, clinical evaluation of rotator interval pathology remains difficult; and no consensus exists concerning their management. Imaging characterization of rotator interval pathology could be a key factor for pre-therapeutic work-up.
