Patients with previous shoulder surgery or shoulder fracture, recurrent shoulder instability, and systemic inflammatory disease were excluded. Preoperative US and MRI of the shoulder were performed and interpreted with a standardized approach. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy of US and MRI were calculated using arthroscopic findings as the gold standard.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Of the 437 patients, 157 had SSC tears confirmed at the time of arthroscopy, 126 of whom had partial\u2010thickness tears. US correctly diagnosed 122 of 157 patients with SSC tears, with an overall sensitivity of 77.7% (confidence interval [CI] 70.6%\u201083.5%), which was significantly greater than that of MRI (49.7%, CI 42.0%\u201057.4%,\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; .001). For partial\u2010thickness SSC tears, US correctly diagnosed 93 of 126 positive patients and 276 of 311 negative patients. This resulted in a sensitivity of 73.8% (CI 65.5%\u201080.7%), specificity of 88.7% (CI 84.8%\u201091.8%), and accuracy of 84.4% (CI 80.7%\u201087.5%). As with MRI, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy were 38.1% (CI 29.7%\u201047.2%), 86.5% (CI 82.3%\u201089.9%), and 72.5% (CI 68.2%\u201076.5%), respectively. Lesser tuberosity cysts and subcoracoid cysts were 2 MRI signs with high specificity (98.2% and 94.6%); however, their sensitivities were relatively low (19.8% and 33.8%).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>US is a reliable and accurate diagnostic method for SSC tears, especially in easily missed partial\u2010thickness tears.
