The Use of Musculoskeletal Ultrasonography in the Diagnosis of Tendinopathy in a Multidisciplinary Sports Medicine Clinic
The term tendinopathy is broadly used to describe pathological changes within or about a tendon. Common tendon pathology seen in a sports medicine practice include partial or complete tendon tears, degenerative changes in a tendon or tendinosis, and inflammatory changes in the tendon or its associated structures such as peritendinitis, peratendinitis, peratenosynovitis, paratenosynovitis, and tenosynovitis. These conditions each require different and specific care plan for successful outcomes. Musculoskeletal ultrasonography can be used to visualize pathological changes within a tendon to determine the correct diagnosis and the subsequent management plan.
