Abstract
Introduction: Ultrasound tissue characterisation (UTC) is a unique imaging modality used to investigate structural changes of the patellar tendon. Adolescent athletes who load their knees may be susceptible to patellar tendon abnormality(s) (PTA), characterised by areas of structural disorganisation. Presence of a PTA is a risk factor for the development of pain and dysfunction. This longitudinal study aimed to investigate patellar tendon structural changes in adolescent athletes with PTA.
