"The short radiolunate ligament forms a part of the volar radiocarpal joint capsule and connects the palmar surface of the radial lunate fossa with the lunate bone. It runs in a fairly longitudinal fashion and is separated from the long radiolunate ligament by a triangular space containing the radioscapholunate ligament, which is not a real ligament but rather a capsular extension containing nerves and vessels 1-3."

"The short radiolunate ligament originates ulnar to the origin of the long radiolunate ligament from the lunate fossa of the distal radius 1-3."
"The short radiolunate ligament can be visualised on ultrasound with the transducer placed at the volar aspect of the slightly extended wrist in the longitudinal plane slightly rotated towards the lunate bone. The long axis of the ligament is displayed as an echogenic, fibrillary structure attaching the ulnar part of the distal radius to the lunate bone 2,3."
"The short radiolunate ligament can be visualised on MRI best in sagittal or 3D images 4,5. With proper knowledge of anatomy, it can be also variably seen on coronal images. It shows a hypointense appearance and is seen anterior to the radiocarpal joint space deep to the flexor tendons 4,5."
