Application of MRI in the Diagnosis of Atypical Elbow Injury
Objective To explore the application effect of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)in the diagnosis of atypical elbow injury.Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with atypical elbow injury who were treated in our hospital from January 2021 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients received X-ray examination and MRI examination after admission.X-ray examination was performed in anterolateral position,and MRI examination sequences including T1WI,T2WI,PDWI and STIR were used to scan the coronal,sagittal and axial planes of patients.The diagnostic results of the two detection methods were compared,and the diagnostic value of X-ray and MRI was analyzed with comprehensive examination as the standard.Results Combined diagnosis showed that 68 cases of 80 patients with atypical elbow injury had fractures,including 12 cases(17.65％)of ulna coronoid process fracture,13 cases(19.12％)of olecranal fractures,6 cases(8.82％)of radial head and neck fractures,5 cases(7.35％)of radius head dislocation,11 cases(16.18％)of humeral medial condylar fractures,8 cases(11.76％)of humeral lateral condylar fractures,7 cases(10.29％)of humeral intercondylar fractures and 6 cases(8.82％)of humeral trochlea.The sensitivity of MRI examination was significantly higher than that of X-ray examination while the rate of missed diagnosis was significantly lower than that of X-ray examination(P＜0.05).Conclusion MRI is of high diagnostic value in detecting patients with atypical elbow injury,and it can help doctors to identify the injury quickly and is suitable for clinical promotion and application.
