The Infraspinatus is one of the four rotator cuff muscles in the shoulder that helps to stabilize and rotate the arm. A tendon is where the muscle attaches to bone. Tendinopathy is a general term meaning injury or disease to a tendon. So Infraspinatus tendinopathy would mean some kind of damage or disease to the Infraspinatus muscle near the area where it attaches to the bone.

What are the common symptoms and treatment options for calcific tendinopathy?
Common symptoms of calcific tendinopathy include pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion in the affected tendon. Treatment options may include rest, physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, shockwave therapy, and in severe cases, surgery to remove the calcium deposits.
Is the subscapular fossa located anterior or posterior to the supraspinatus and infraspinarus fossae?
The subscapular fossa is located anterior to the supraspinatus and infraspinatus fossae on the scapula.
What are 7 muscles that attach the scapula to the thorax?
rhomboids, trapezoids, serratus anterior, subscapularis, infraspinatus, supraspinatus, teres minor
What muscle is the main antagonist of medial rotation of the humerus?
The main antagonist of medial rotation of the humerus is the infraspinatus muscle, one of the rotator cuff muscles. It works in opposition to the muscles that perform medial rotation, such as the subscapularis.
What is the name of the movement the rotator cuff allows the shoulder?
suprasinatus,infraspinatus,teres minor,subscapularis
What is the icd-9 code for tendinopathy?
There is no ICD-9 code found for tendinopathy. There are codes for tendonitis and they vary depending on what part of the body is being treated.
What is antagonist to infraspinatus?
Subscapularis muscle
What is the antagonistic muscle of the infraspinatus?
The pectoralis muscle.
Is the infraspinatus a pennate fiber arrangement?
yes
Is the spelling of the tendon condition tendonopathy or tendinopathy?
Either 'tendinopathy' or' tendonopathy' is correct, according to both Merriam Webster and The Free Dictionary. More specifically, it can be tendinitis, (or tendonitis), or tendinosis, (or tendonosis). The spellings using 'tendon' are probably less confusing, because while the word 'tendin' does exist, it refers to a protein, not to a musculo-skeletal component.
What is the name of the insertion of the infraspinatus?

Which muscle flexes the shoulder joint of an animal?

What muscle is the primary shoulder external rotator?
Infraspinatus.
What is the action of infraspinatus?
is a muscle in the rotator cuff that assists the moving of the shoulder
What muscles are involved in lateral rotation of the humerus?
The rotator cuff muscles: Supraspinatus Infraspinatus Teres Minor Supscapularis Easily remembered as SITS.
What movement occurs when the infraspinatus contracts concentrically?
When the infraspinatus muscle contracts concentrically, it primarily facilitates external rotation of the shoulder joint. This movement is crucial for various activities that involve lifting the arm away from the body or throwing motions. Additionally, the infraspinatus plays a role in stabilizing the shoulder by maintaining the position of the humeral head in the glenoid cavity during arm movements.
What muscles form the rotator cuff?
subscapularis, supraspinatus, infraspinatus and teres minor
