"The ulnolunate ligament forms the anterior part of the ulnocarpal joint capsule together with the ulnotriquetral ligament, with which it shares a common origin and attaches the volar radioulnar ligament and thus the triangular fibrocartilage complex to the ulnar side of the lunate 1-3."
"The ulnolunate ligament can be visualised on ultrasound with the transducer placed at the volar ulnar aspect of the wrist in the longitudinal plane and slightly rotate towards the lunate. The long axis of the ligament is then displayed as an echogenic, fibrillary structure coursing over the ulnocarpal joint and connecting the volar radioulnar ligament to the lunate. Proximally it cannot be demarcated from the ulnotriquetral ligament 2,3."
"The ulnolunate ligament can be visualised on MRI best on coronal or 3D images 4. With proper anatomical knowledge, it can be also variably seen on sagittal images. It has a hypointense, slightly striated appearance and is seen anterior to the medial ulnocarpal joint ref."
