Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers unparalleled soft tissue contrast resolution, direct multiplanar imaging capabilities, and high-spatial resolution, allowing for reproducible, accurate preoperative diagnosis of ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) abnormalities. The UCL of the elbow may be injured acutely or as a result of chronic repetitive valgus stress. MRI of the injured and the reconstructed UCL is discussed, with reference to associated findings in the setting of acute UCL injury and chronic valgus extension overload.
