New implant for torn shoulder tendons gets closer look with MRI
NCT ID NCT06353893
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 10, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how well a bio-inductive implant helps heal torn rotator cuff tendons in the shoulder. Researchers will use MRI scans at 3 and 6 months after surgery to check if the repair is holding and if there are any problems. About 20 people with partial or full tears will take part. The goal is to see if the implant is safe and effective.
