Musculoskeletal imaging in sports medicine is a rapidly developing field, being driven by both continuously advancing technology and improved understanding of the disabilities that may result from sporting injuries.

 

Many of these injuries can be minimised or avoided by early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

 

Paradoxically, as imaging tests become ever more sophisticated and sensitive, the importance of clinical judgement in determining both when to order tests and the relevance of abnormal findings increases. This is because incidental anatomical derangements, such as normal developmental variants and asymptomatic degenerative changes which become more prevalent with age and high-level sporting activity are frequently detected in asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic athletes.

 

Cscan is not only able to provide advanced musculoskeletal imaging with MRI, ultrasound, CT and digital x-ray, but also provides expert interpretation of these images to give your doctor and trainer the information they need to plan your treatment and recovery training program.
