Netzer C. Assessing Fatty Infiltration of Paraspinal Muscles in Patients With Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: Goutallier Classification and Quantitative MRI Measurements. Front Neurol. 2021 Sep 3;12:656487. doi: 10.3389/fneur.2021.656487. PMID: 34539538; PMCID: PMC...
There was a reduction in the severity of fatty infiltration on the Goutallier classification from sections 1 to 3 across all muscles: 42.5% of both supraspinatus and infraspinatus were downgraded by 1, 20% of supraspinatus and 3.8% of infraspinatus were downgraded by 2, and 2.5% of ...
The Goutallier classification of fatty infiltration of the rotator cuff was developed for use in axial computed tomography arthrography. Now the Goutallier classification is being used with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Not only is there debate on the validity of the use of this system in MRI...

The Goutallier classification of fatty infiltration of the rotator cuff was developed for use in axial computed tomography arthrography. Now the Gout...
Post-operative rotator cuff integrity, based on Sugaya’s classification, can reflect abduction muscle strength of the shoulder Article 22 June 2017 Serial structural MRI evaluation of arthroscopy rotator cuff repair: does Sugaya’s classification correlate with the postoperative clinical outcomes?

There is no agreement on a classification system that is both reliable and easy to use for describing the severity of fatty degeneration in the paravertebral muscles of the lower back in patients with symptomatic LSS. This study aimed to determine the statistical relationship between the GS and ...
Fatty infiltration at each lumbar level was rated qualitatively according to the Goutallier classification and quantified based on the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the paraspinal muscle, of its lean fraction (LeanCSA), and the ratio between LeanCSA and CSA and the CSA relative to the CSA of...

Conclusion: In assessing fatty infiltration of the subscapularis muscle, the modified Goutallier classification showed higher reliability than the original Goutallier classification. The cutoff point for potential retear (grade 3.5) was at a point where the fatty infiltration extended to ...
