Evaluation of the Gliding of Posterior Elbow Fat Pad Using Ultrasonography and Particle Image Velocimetry
Our results indicate that the velocity and direction of gliding of the fat pad behind the elbow joint in healthy patients vary with changes in the elbow joint extension angle. US proves to be a valuable tool for evaluating the posterior elbow fat pad.
