Sagittal oblique (a) and coronal oblique CT arthrographic images (b) through the supraspinatus tendon, in a 47 years old male patient complained from left shoulder pain increased on arm lifting, there is a simple partial-thickness articular surface tear of supraspinatus tendon at its footprint affecting 82% of its thickness. Note the potential for percentage affection measurement was got by virtue of contrast highlighting of tendon bursal surface from bursography (blue arrow). Biceps long head tendon (white arrow) is easily depicted within the rotator interval with overlying coraco-humeral ligament (dashed black arrow)
