Fig 1 The ROC curve for determining the cut point for the number of the 5 impingement tests to confirm and screen for SAIS. The circle indicates the point nearest the uppermost left-hand corner of the graph, which represents the cut point. The cut point is 3+ of 5 tests for discrimination of the presence or absence of SAIS using 5 impingement tests. The 5 tests were the Hawkins-Kennedy, Neer, painful arc, empty can (Jobe), and external rotation resistance tests.
