Abstract:
CME-Sonography 105: Ultrasound in Sports Injuries Abstract. Muscle injuries are frequent in athletes and in the general population. For therapy and prognosis, it is important to understand the total extent of the injury and to be aware of possible complications. In most cases ultrasound is a useful tool for diagnostics of muscle injuries. However, muscle ultrasound is not as common as joint ultrasound; this article discusses the possibilities of high-resolution dynamic ultrasound in diagnostics and its limitations.
