Before Tookey, Presiding Judge, and Egan, Judge, and Kamins, Judge.
In a petition for judicial review, claimant, who suffered a compensable injury at work, challenges an order of the Workers' Compensation Board affirming an order of an administrative law judge (AL J) upholding employer's denial of claimant's new/omitted medical condition claims for a right shoulder rotator cuff tear and a right biceps tendon rupture. Contrary to claimant's contention, the board did not fail to decide claimant's challenge to the denial of the rotator cuff tear; the board simply affirmed the AL J's order upholding the denial without writing further. Substantial evidence supports the board's determination that that claim is not compensable. See ORS 183.482(8)(c) ( ). Substantial evidence also supports the board's determination upholding the denial of the new/omitted medical condition claim for a biceps tendon rupture, based on the board's determination that claimant did not establish the existence of the claimed condition.
Affirmed.
