A study on the prevalence of the anconeus epitrochlearis muscle by magnetic resonance imaging

ABSTRACT Objective To analyze magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the elbow area to quantify the presence of the anconeus epitrochlearis muscle. Methods A total of 232 exams were analyzed; 218 were included, of which 141 were of men and 77, women. Results Presence of the muscle was observed in 29...
