Synopsis

Sixty-six patients with subacromial impingement syndrome were randomized to receive either high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) plus physical therapy (n=33) or sham laser plus physical therapy (n=33). The primary outcome was supraspinatus tendon elasticity measured with shear wave elastography. Secondary outcomes included pain (VAS) and function (SPADI). Outcomes were assessed at baseline and after...
