Sports Medicine Days | Day 4 | Imaging Techniques for Diagnosis and Management of Ankle Instability
The fourth day of the Sports Med Days is focused on “Ankle Instability,” a common and significant issue in elite sports frequently resulting from acute or chronic ligament injuries1. For this reason, accurate diagnosis is essential to prevent long-term complications and to guide rehabilitation strategies that support a safe return to sports activities.
Medical imaging (ultrasound and MRI) plays a crucial role in assessing ankle instability: it is essential for identifying injuries that may be overlooked and tailoring treatment plans to the athlete’s needs.
Join the Sports Med Days series on Day 4 for a focused session on medical imaging in ankle instability, and learn how ultrasound and MRI complement each other in diagnosis, treatment planning, and rehabilitation for athletes with ankle injuries.
