The dorsal SLIL is approximately 7.5 mm long and 1.8 mm thick. These parameters may be useful in treatment of SLIL injuries to restore the native anatomy. High-frequency ultrasound is a useful imaging technique to assess the dorsal SLIL, although further study is needed to assess the use of high-frequency ultrasound in detection of SLIL pathology.
