Abstract
Overuse and traumatic injuries of the elbow are common, occurring in both athletes and nonathletes. This article will discuss the commonly encountered soft-tissue and osseous pathologic abnormalities around the elbow and their imaging appearance on MRI and ultrasound. The current treatment of tendon disease of the elbow is reviewed, with a focus on platelet-rich plasma injection.
