| Abstract: | Hamstring muscle injuries (HMI) are the most commonly encountered sports-related injuries. There are also often quite difficult to treat. The aim of imaging such injuries is to provide an estimate of the nature and extent of the injury, which would guide treatment (conservative or surgical) and minimize unnecessary and often detrimental convalescence. Minimizing the duration of inactivity is not only important in professional athletes, but also in generally active individuals who enjoy sport for leisure. |
