Phenotype of Achilles Tendon Ultrasonographic Abnormalities and Their Relationship to Future Time-Loss Injury
Results suggest a specific phenotype of sonographic abnormality of the AT that suggests a 1-in-3 chance of developing time-loss injury within a year. Detecting abnormality of future AT before symptoms develop may allow for rehabilitation strategies to prevent or reduce time-loss.
