Abstract

This workshop will discuss the importance and relevance of imaging modalities in the diagnosis and management of lower limb tendinopathy. Included is a practical demonstration of ultrasound tissue characterisation (UTC) in imaging the Achilles and patellar tendon with detailed input from Prof Jill Cook and Ebonie Rio on the conservative and intervention management directed by findings on UTC. UTC utilises conventional ultrasound to render a 3-dimensional image of the tendon and allows semi-quantitative analysis of tendon structure and detection of subtle changes in tendon structure in response to load.
