Abstract

In this study the importance of ultrasonography in early diagnostic of subacromial impingement syndrome has been shown. We gave the therapy protocol in the treatment of this syndrome, that included modern physical agents such are: lasertherapy, low frequent magnetic field therapy and tradicional application of cryotherapy. The aim of this treatment was to achieve the analgetic and the anti-inflammatory effect because the reduction of pain and inflammation is the main principle in the healing of subacromial impingement syndrome

Key words:subacromial impingement syndrome, ultrasonography, lasertherapy, magnetic field therapy
