Abstract

We present a comprehensive update of elbow magnetic resonance imaging, detailing the complex anatomy and pathology of the elbow. A variety of pathologies may affect the elbow joint, and many of the symptoms overlap. As such, magnetic resonance imaging of the elbow serves as an invaluable clinical tool for the clinician in the diagnosis and management of patients presenting with elbow pain.
