Objective:
The purpose of this video article is to aid examiners in clinical practice in identifying intraarticular and extraarticular pathologic changes in the elbow, including intraarticular structures, fluid in the joint, arthritis, synovitis, and loose bodies.
Conclusion:
Common pathologic findings can be identified with a standardized ultrasound technique based on landmarks, and intraarticular injection and aspiration, dynamic imaging, and ulnar stress maneuvers can be performed. Extraarticular pathologic findings are evaluated in an approach based on quadrants.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
