Imaging Sports Injuries: Perspectives From Brazil and North America

This two-part web symposium features faculty from the Brazilian College of Radiology and Diagnostic Imaging and ARRS sharing their expertise on various aspects of sports injuries. This three-hour course includes a discussion of Brazil's experiences with Olympic and World Cup athletics.

At the end of this session, viewers will be able to:

  • Identify the best imaging technique to assist clinical colleagues in diagnosing MSK injuries and conditions.
  • Compare injury patterns of skeletally immature vs mature athletes.
  • Identify specific MSK injury concerns for active females.
