Each case was also evaluated for presence or absence of a comma sign on MRI. Surgical findings served as the diagnostic standard of reference in determination of a comma sign.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The study cohort included 45 male and 10 female patients (mean age, 56; range, 32\u201080 years). A comma sign was present at arthroscopy in 19 patients (34.5%). Interclass and intrarater correlation showed 100% agreement in preoperative assessment of a comma sign on MRI. MRI showed an overall accuracy of 83.6% in diagnosis of a comma sign (sensitivity, 63.2%; specificity, 94.4%; positive predictive value, 85.7%; negative predictive value, 82.9%; positive likelihood ratio, 11.37; negative likelihood ratio, 0.39). No statistically significant association was observed between\u00a0an arthroscopic comma sign and patient demographics or MRI findings of full\u2010thickness rotator cuff\u00a0tears, muscle fatty atrophy, or long head of the biceps tendon pathology.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>MR imaging illustrates excellent reliability and good specificity and accuracy in detection of the arthroscopic comma sign in the setting of subscapularis tendon tearing.
