Detailed view

What to notice

  • Lateral epicondylalgia is commonly associated with the common extensor tendon origin, especially ECRB.
  • Symptoms are load-related and should not be interpreted as a simple inflammatory lesion in every case.
  • Assessment should consider grip, resisted loading, function and alternative sources of lateral elbow pain.

The visual should be interpreted with the accompanying clinical context. PNA avoids using a single image or special test as stand-alone proof of a diagnosis.
