title: MR imaging of the elbow. Technical considerations.
abstract: The elbow has proven the most technically challenging of all of the major joints in MR imaging, particularly with regard to radiofrequency design. It is possible to obtain high-quality diagnostic studies on most clinical MR imaging systems that are made today using available coils and pulse sequences. This article evaluates techniques for MR imaging of the elbow.
