Comparison of acromiohumeral distance in symptomatic and asymptomatic patient shoulders and those of healthy controls

Differences in shoulder pain perception at 0° are not attributable to acromiohumeral distance differences. However, treatments focused on increasing AHD at 60° could be prescribed, as a significantly reduced AHD was found in symptomatic shoulders when compared with contralateral shoulders. Further research is needed to determine, not only static differences in AHD, but also dynamic differences.
