Elbow joint: assessment with double-contrast CT arthrography.

R D Singson, F Feldman, Z S Rosenberg

    Radiology
    |July 1, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    Computed tomography (CT) after double-contrast arthrography precisely locates intraarticular elbow abnormalities. This imaging technique identifies causes of limited elbow motion, offering an anatomical basis for diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic imaging
    • Radiology
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Elbow joint evaluation can be challenging.
    • Idiopathic cases of limited elbow motion require detailed investigation.
    • Advanced imaging techniques are crucial for diagnosing intraarticular pathologies.

    Observation:

    • Computed tomography (CT) was performed immediately after double-contrast arthrography of the elbow joint.
    • The study illustrates normal elbow anatomy and various abnormal findings.
    • Specific intraarticular abnormalities were visualized and precisely located.

    Findings:

    • Osteocartilaginous bodies, hyperplastic synovium, fracture fragments, and osteophytes were identified.
    • Postarthrography CT scans effectively visualized these intraarticular abnormalities.
    • The technique provided precise localization of pathologies within the elbow joint.

    Implications:

    • This combined imaging approach offers an anatomical and mechanical basis for diagnosing limited elbow motion.
    • It aids in understanding the etiology of previously unexplained elbow stiffness.
    • The findings support the utility of CT arthrography in clinical orthopedic practice.
