2 Fig 1 A longitudinal ultrasonographic image of the common flexor tendon of the left elbow in a 56-year-old woman with medial epicondylitis. The tendon had a focal hypoechoic area (arrow) that was consistent with tendinosis.

3 Fig 2 A longitudinal ultrasonographic image of the common flexor tendon of the left elbow in a 49-year-old man with medial epicondylitis. The tendon was thickened and had a focal linear anechoic area (arrow) that was consistent with intrasubstance tear.

4 Fig 3 Ultrasonographic images of the common flexor tendon of the left elbow in a 52-year-old woman with medial epicondylitis. (A) Longitudinal grayscale and (B) transverse color Doppler images. The tendon had a focal anechoic area (white arrow) that was consistent with a partial-thickness tear, with increased vascularity, cortical irregularity (black arrow), and spur formation (arrowhead).

5 Fig 4 A transverse grayscale image of the common flexor tendon of the left elbow in a 53-year-old woman with medial epicondylitis. The tendon had hyperechoic tiny punctuated calcifications (arrows).
