This volume Ultrasonography of the Upper Extremity: Elbow represents a continuation, with the same intentions, of Ultrasonography of the Upper Extremity: Hand and Wrist. I decided, in fact, to create this second volume because constant and rapid technological progress has led to incredible progress in the use of ultrasound for the diagnosis of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, particularly of some areas such as the elbow. The changing science has forced those who practice osteoarticular ultrasound to rapidly increase their knowledge. I then tried to write a monograph useful for people who are just beginning to learn about the topic as well as for people who already have experience in the area, in an attempt to make a complex topic— that is the ultrasound of the elbow—easier to understand. The monograph consists of two parts that are each four chapters in length: a general part (introduction, anatomy, examination techniques and ultrasound appearance and pathology) and a second part that describes the study of elbow ultrasound based on topography (the anterior aspect: muscle and distal bicep tendon, brachial muscle and tendon, bicipitora
