Ultrasonographic Prevalence of Ring‐Down Artifact in the Medial Elbow Joint Gap at the Valgus Position in Asymptomatic High School Baseball Players

Repetitive valgus stress during pitching in baseball can lead to medial elbow instability. Although ring‐down artifact (RDA) has been considered an indicator of valgus instability, its pathological significance remains unclear.… Click to show full abstract

Repetitive valgus stress during pitching in baseball can lead to medial elbow instability. Although ring‐down artifact (RDA) has been considered an indicator of valgus instability, its pathological significance remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify RDA‐positive rates and differences in valgus conditions in the medial elbow joint gap distance of asymptomatic high school baseball players.
