    AbstractShoulder ultrasound is a commonly performed imaging study that can accurately determine the presence of rotator cuff tendinosis and tears, as well as subacromial-subdeltoid bursal and long head of biceps tendon pathology. High accuracy depends on an awareness of imaging pitfalls that can be encountered and lead to over- or underdiagnosis of rotator cuff pathology. Ten common pitfalls of rotator cuff ultrasound scanning are presented along with ways to avoid these pitfalls.Thieme Medical Publishers 333 Seventh Avenue, New York, NY 10001, USA.
