ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Musculoskeletal ultrasound is a clinical auxiliary examination for the diagnosis of musculoskeletal system injuries by ultrasound imaging technology.
Objective:
To explore the real time application value of musculoskeletal ultrasound in exercise.
Methods:
The MSKUS technique was used to diagnose and classify the types, positions and degrees of sports injuries.
Results:
A total of 35 athletes received a MSKUS diagnosis; 2 athletes were recommended to withdraw from competition after the diagnosis and return to China for treatment. Among the athletes, 9 cases (25.71%) suffered muscle injury, 22 (62.86%) suffered tendon, ligament and fascia injury, 2 (5.71%) suffered bone and cartilage injury, and 2 (5.71%) suffered bursitis. The main site of injury was the lower extremity (74.29%). Most of the injuries were mild, and only 2 cases were severe.
Conclusions:
Musculoskeletal ultrasound has certain advantages in the real-time diagnosis of tendons, ligaments and soft tissue in the field. Using musculoskeletal ultrasounds, doctors can assess the injury situation more quickly and accurately, and choose the next steps concerning exercise prescription and a rehabilitation treatment plan more effectively. Musculoskeletal ultrasound is real time, reliable and convenient, and has application value in sports. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment results.
