    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Radiology
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Elbow joint imaging interpretation relies on understanding normal anatomy.
    • The elbow's complex structure necessitates a standardized examination protocol.
    • Differentiating anatomical structures and pathological conditions requires specific imaging techniques.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the importance of anatomical knowledge for interpreting elbow joint computer tomographs.
    • To demonstrate the superiority of CT in diagnosing specific elbow pathologies.
    • To establish CT as a crucial supplementary imaging modality for the elbow.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of normal elbow joint anatomy.
    • Development and application of a definite examination protocol for elbow CT.
    • Clinical case presentation illustrating CT's diagnostic capabilities.

    Main Results:

    • CT enables clear visualization of all anatomical structures within the elbow joint.
    • CT effectively distinguishes between normal anatomy and pathological processes.
    • CT demonstrated superiority over other radiographic methods in identifying osteochondritis dissecans.

    Conclusions:

    • A thorough understanding of normal anatomy is fundamental for accurate elbow CT interpretation.
    • A defined CT protocol is essential for comprehensive elbow joint assessment.
    • Computer tomography is a highly effective and important additional method for elbow joint imaging, particularly for osteochondritis dissecans.
