Radiological evaluation in young patients with atlas fractures during professional and amateur sport.
CONCLUSIONS: Further studies were warranted but the combination of CT and MRI is is very useful for the evaluation and for the therapeutic approach of spinal trauma patients, specially in cases with atlas fractures. The long term stability seems to have good results. PMID: 23757645 [PubMed - in process]

Magnetic resonance elastography of skeletal muscle captures individual heterogeneity in a knee extension task.
Abstract The viscoelastic properties of muscle have been measured for more than a century to describe muscle disease, damage, recovery and performance. Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) (Muthupillai et al. Science 1995;5232:1854-7) measures viscoelastic parameters of soft tissue in vivo. New software developed by the Clinical Research Imaging Centre (CRIC), MRE-J (Barnhill et al. Proc Image J Dev Conf, Oct 2012), enables the creation of maps of skeletal muscle viscoelastic properties through the transverse plane with MRE. In the present study, thigh muscle stiffness maps were created of ten subjects in a knee ...

Arthroscopic and Sports Medicine Science: Looking Beyond the Level of Evidence (for Now)
For now, arthroscopic and sports medicine scientists and clinicians may simply need to look beyond level of evidence when trying to answer clinical questions, because the truth is, studies of high levels of evidence are scant. As we said in January when celebrating the 2013 Level I Evidence prize, “Seriously?” As we noted, Arthroscopy published only 12 Level I evidence studies during the 12 months of 2013. To us, this seems like very few.

Aerobic exercise increases hippocampal volume in older women with probable mild cognitive impairment: a 6-month randomised controlled trial.
CONCLUSIONS: Aerobic training significantly increased hippocampal volume in older women with probable MCI. More research is needed to ascertain the relevance of exercise-induced changes in hippocampal volume on memory performance in older adults with MCI. TRAIL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT00958867.

Imaging services at the Paralympic Games London 2012: analysis of demand and distribution of workload.
CONCLUSIONS: MRI was the most used imaging resource and CT was the least used imaging modality at the Paralympic village polyclinic. Analysis of demographic data provides a useful index for planning radiology infrastructure and manpower at future international competitions for athletes with a disability.

Biceps femoris and semitendinosus-teammates or competitors? New insights into hamstring injury mechanisms in male football players: a muscle functional MRI study.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that the vulnerability of the hamstring muscles to football-related injury is related to the complexity and close coherence in the synergistic muscle recruitment of the biceps femoris and the semitendinosus. Discrete differences in neuromuscular coordination and activity distribution, with the biceps femoris partly having to compensate for the lack of endurance capacity of the semitendinosus, probably increase the hamstring injury risk.

The Copenhagen Standardised MRI protocol to assess the pubic symphysis and adductor regions of athletes: outline and intratester and intertester reliability.
CONCLUSIONS: The Copenhagen Standardised MRI protocol demonstrated moderate-to-substantial reliability in rating bone marrow oedema, and varied from fair-to-substantial agreement for the majority of MRI features, but showed only slight agreement in rating adductor longus tendinopathy. This rigorous investigation also confirms that while MRI evaluation seems to provide reasonable reliability in rating pubic bone marrow oedema, the evaluation of adductor tendinopathy in a clinical and research setting needs further resolution by continued development and testing of MRI acquisition protocols.

MRI findings in soccer players with long-standing adductor-related groin pain and asymptomatic controls.
CONCLUSIONS: ARGP in soccer players was associated with central disc protrusion and higher grades of pubic BMO. Moreover, positive MRI findings were significantly more frequent in soccer players compared with non-soccer players irrespective of symptoms, suggesting that these MRI changes may be associated with soccer play itself rather than clinical symptoms.

Ultrasonographic assessment of fractures: a break in tradition?
Portable ultrasound (US) devices continue to improve in technical capabilities while cost decreases allow widespread use beyond traditional sports medicine settings.1 Using US at the field of play is an exciting advance in acute injury assessment. Images submitted as part of Hoffman et al2 review reflect state-of-the-art quality and great promise. By assessing for bone injury, athletes can be triaged on the field, possibly preventing further trauma by early return. However, ultrasonography examinations in general are highly user dependent, and lack of expertise in scanning can lead to significant error rates. Ultrasonograp...

Timing of Surgery for Complete Proximal Hamstring Avulsion Injuries: Successful Clinical Outcomes at 6 Weeks, 6 Months, and After 6 Months of Injury
Conclusion: Early surgical intervention was associated with good clinical outcomes and a quicker return to sport; however, delaying the diagnosis can lead to prolonged morbidity and an increased likelihood of complications.
