| Side-lying abduction was found to have the greatest statistically significant increase in signal intensity for the supraspinatus, deltoid, infraspinatus, and subscapularis muscles, whereas it produced the least change in the trapezius muscle. Hoppenfeld,[11] however, asserted that because of its anterior location the tendon of the subscapularis muscle cannot be palpated. [11] These force couples are the anterior deltoid muscle counter-balanced by the infraspinatus and teres minor muscles and the subscapularis muscle counterbalanced by die infraspinatus and teres minor muscles. |
