EURO-MUSCULUS/USPRM Dynamic Ultrasound Protocols for Elbow

Am J Phys Med Rehabil. 2022 Jun 1;101(6):e83-e92. doi: 10.1097/PHM.0000000000001915. Epub 2021 Dec 29.

Abstract

In this dynamic protocol, ultrasound examination of the elbow using different maneuvers is described for several/relevant elbow problems. Scanning videos are coupled with real-time patient examination videos for better understanding. The authors believe that this practical guide-prepared by an international consensus of several experts (EURO-MUSCULUS: European Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Study Group and USPRM: Ultrasound Study Group of ISPRM [International Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine])-will help musculoskeletal physicians perform a better and uniform/standard approach.
