MRI scan - right shoulder - results!!

[josehaigh]

Hi, following shoulder surgery early this year ( arthroscopy with debridement) I was recently referred for another MRI scan due to intolerable pain - worse than before surgery!

These are the results I got from my GP today:

Findings:

There is a widening of the AC jointspace, with mild effusion and an ill-defined acromium.

There is increased signal intensity of the distal infraspinatus tendon suggestive of either moderate tendinosis or an intrasubstance tear.

Mild subdeltoid/subacromial and subcoracoid effusion.

Can anyone help me to understand whats going on here and whether further surgery is likley??

Many Thanks

Jose.
