Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Elbow
CONTEXT The elbow is a complex joint and commonly injured in athletes. Evaluation of the elbow by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an important adjunct to the physical examination. To facilitate accurate diagnosis, a concise structured approach to evaluation of the elbow by MRI is presented. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A PubMed search was performed using the terms elbow and MR imaging. No limits ...
متن کاملارزیابی حساسیت و ویژگی MRI در مقایسه با آرتروسکوپی در ضایعات زانو
Background: The knee is the most commonly injured joint. The internal components of the knee include the meniscuses, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligaments (PCL). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is now used widely because of its high accuracy and noninvasiveness. Our objective was to diagnose internal knee component injuries by MRI and compare its diagnostic valu...
متن کاملA Mathematical Approach for Describing Time-Dependent Poisson’s Ratios of Periodontal Ligaments
Periodontal ligament is a thin layer of soft tissue that connects root of a tooth to the surrounding alveolar bone. These ligaments play an important role in initiating tooth movement when loads are applied to teeth with orthodontic appliances. The majority of such soft tissues exhibit as viscoelastic bodies or have a time-dependent behavior. Due to the viscoelastic behavior of the periodontal ...
متن کاملIn vivo cartilage contact strains in patients with lateral ankle instability.
Damage to the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and cacaneofibular ligament (CFL) during an ankle sprain may be linked to the development of osteoarthritis. Although altered tibiotalar kinematics have been demonstrated, the effects of lateral ankle instability (LAI) on in vivo cartilage strains have not been described. We hypothesized that peak cartilage strains increase, and the location is...
متن کاملEffect of peripheral afferent alteration of the lateral ankle ligaments on dynamic stability.
BACKGROUND The sensorimotor influence of the lateral ankle ligaments in muscle activation is unclear. HYPOTHESIS The lateral ankle ligaments have significant sensorimotor influence on muscle activation. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS Muscle-firing characteristics in response to a high-speed inversion perturbation and during gait were assessed in 13 normal subjects. Solu...
