Soft Tissue Injury to the Elbow
摘要
Traumatic injury to the musculotendinous units of the elbow may result from acute trauma or repetitive microtrauma. Furthermore, acute trauma is frequently superimposed on tendinopathy or other chronic injuries. MRI can be highly valuable in the assessment of elbow pain, owing to its superb soft tissue resolution. Even in patients with a clear clinical diagnosis of musculotendinous pathology, MRI can better establish the severity of injury as well as the presence of associated conditions.
