Longitudinal power Doppler image showing increased vascularity around a calcification (arrow) and partial-thickness tear (arrow head) in the common extensor tendon. C. Longitudinal image showing the needle tip (star) located in the area of a partial-thickness tear. D. Post-injection ultrasonographic image showing injected PRP (arrow) spread within the tendon; the star indicates the injected needle. E.
