Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Conventional MRI is limited in imaging tissues with short T2 relaxation times, such as bone, ligaments, and cartilage, due to their rapid signal decay. This limitation has spurred the development of specialized MRI techniques designed specifically for short‐T2 tissue imaging.

MRI of the Achilles tendon – a comprehensive pictorial review. Part two
European Journal of Radiology Open, 2021 The most common disorder affecting the Achilles tendon is midportion tendinopathy. A focal fluid signal indicates microtears, which may progress to partial and complete rupture.

Achilles tendon rupture. [PDF]
British Journal of Sports Medicine, 1995 The Achilles tendon (AT) is the largest tendon in the human body, but it is also the one that frequently undergoes a complete subcutaneous tear. Men are more frequently affected than women, in particular between 30–40 years old. An AT tear is usually the end result of an asymptomatic process of failed heling typical of tendinopathy.

The Incidence of Achilles Tendon Rupture [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1976 During the years 1950-1973, 229 cases of Achilles tendon rupture were diagnosed in the city of Malmö. More than half of the injuries were caused by sporting activities, the most common being badminton and football (soccer). Ruptures caused by injuries other than sports injuries were found in considerably older subjects.

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Extensor mechanism autografts used for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, namely bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) and quadriceps tendon (QT), may result in harvest‐site tendon elongation. Extended field of view (EFOV) ultrasound imaging has the potential to evaluate changes in tendon length, but the reliability and validity of these ...

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is required for the proper healing, strengthening, and maintenance of tendon tissue. There are well‐documented sex differences in tendon injury rates and healing outcomes, often attributed to either innate differences in tissue structure and resident cell signaling or the influence of sex hormones ...

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Tailored surgical strategies for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in skeletally immature patients are presented, emphasizing techniques to minimize growth plate damage and ensure stability. As ACL injuries in youth increase, delaying surgery can lead to joint damage and poor recovery outcomes.

Bilateral distal Achilles tendon sleeve avulsion: a case report
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2023 Background While Achilles tendon rupture is a common injury sustained especially in sporting events, distal Achilles tendon rupture is less common. Even rarer is a bilateral traumatic distal Achilles tendon sleeve rupture, with outcomes of such injury ...
