Identifying rotator cuff disorders through shoulder movement quality: An exploratory study using a single inertial measurement unit.

Researchers conducted an exploratory study examining whether rotator cuff disorders can be identified by analyzing shoulder movement quality using a single inertial measurement unit (IMU). The findings suggest that IMU-based motion analysis may offer a practical, objective tool for detecting rotator cuff pathology during shoulder movements. This technology could have implications for clinical screening and assessment in physical therapy settings.
