title: MR Imaging of the Elbow.
abstract: Almost all movements of the upper extremities during routine daily life and many athletic activities require a painless and stable elbow joint. Studying the elbow is a diagnostic challenge because of its complex anatomy. MR imaging is an extremely important tool in the evaluation of common elbow disorders, the spectrum of which ranges from obvious acute lesions to chronic overuse injuries whose imaging manifestations can be subtle.
