The suprascapular notch (or scapular notch) is a notch in the superior border of the scapula, just medial to the base of the coracoid process.

This notch is converted into a foramen by the superior transverse scapular ligament, and serves for the passage of the suprascapular nerve (but not its corresponding artery); sometimes the ligament is ossified. The suprascapular artery travels superiorly to the superior transverse ligament.^[1]

According to Rengachary et al. 1979, there are six basic types of scapular notch:^[2]

Type I (8%): Notch is absent. The superior border forms a wide depression from the medial angle to the coracoid process.
Type II (31%): Notch is a blunted V-shape occupying the middle third of the superior border.
Type III (48%): Notch is U-shaped with nearly parallel margins.
Type IV (3%): Notch is V-shaped and very small. A shallow groove is frequently formed for the suprascapular nerve adjacent to the notch.
Type V (6%): Notch is minimal and U-shaped with a partially ossified ligament.
Type VI (4%): Notch is a foramen as the ligament is completely ossified.

PURPOSE: The configuration of suprascapular notch was previously analysed from the anteroposterior viewing. However, the approach direction of the suprascapular nerve (SSN) to the inlet of the suprascapular notch is consistently craniocaudal and mediolateral. We propose a new method to observe the s
