    Supero-lateral view of left cadaveric upper limb with borders of rotator cuff tendons traced onto the glenohumeral joint capsule (CP: coracoid process; CA: coracoacromial ligament; AA: anterior acromion; PA: posterior acromion; RI: rotator interval; SS: supraspinatus tendon; IS: infraspinatus tendon; TM: teres minor tendon; *pressure transducer fixed under AA). Note that subscapularis tendon is anterior to RI.
