This dataset contains medial elbow ultrasound images collected from 15 asymptomatic male baseball pitchers. Three levels of static elbow valgus stress (0N, 50N, 100N) were applied with a TELOS device, before and after repetitive pitching (of 60 to 110 fastballs) and with or without handgrip force. In total of each participant, 24 ultrasound images were collected.


The zip folder Raw Ultrasound Data contains TIFF images. Please read the ReadMe file to understand the order of the images.

The zip folder "Preprocessed data" includes the data of the humeroulnar joint gap, the UCL thickness and UCL length.

The overview .xlsx file contains information from the participants.
