“…Além disso, quando realizada por um profissional experiente, a US pode deter maior sensibilidade que os outros métodos de imagem. A possibilidade de avaliação dinâmica através de movimentos passivos e ativos beneficia o diagnóstico de certas lesões que são visíveis apenas em determinados ângulos e posições, os quais em posição neutra são indetectáveis pela RM, cujo principal exemplo é a hérnia muscular (SPICER et al, 2019).…”

A prática esportiva, tanto no âmbito profissional quanto amador, pode desencadear a ocorrência de lesões musculoesqueléticas, das quais a mais comum é a muscular. Para o diagnóstico dessa afecção, alguns exames de imagem, como a ressonância magnética e a ultrassonografia, são os mais utilizados. Porém, apesar de vantagens e desvantagens, não apresentam 100% de acurácia nas diferentes particularidades que envolvem a lesão muscular. O objetivo desse capítulo foi realizar uma revisão narrativa sobre os principais aspectos relacionados a esses exames de imagem no ambiente esportivo.

“…Ultrasound or ultrasound in sports medicine can diagnose multiple sports pathologies, it has shown sensitivity and specificity for partial and complete muscle tears in the shoulder, pathology related to sports that involve throwing balls; in elbow epicondylitis linked to throwing in cases refractory to treatment or when the diagnosis is doubtful, in complete ruptures that present retraction of the tendon, ultrasound has a sensitivity of 98% (Spicer et al, 2019;Cedrún, 2020). In the case of pitching a greater number of injuries in young pitchers, physical therapy and rehabilitation before considering surgery, we can start phase I and II of the rehabilitation process: the goal is to allow the injured tissue to heal, modify the activity, reduce pain and inflammation, and restore mobility.…”

Soft tissue injuries are a recurrent cause that affects the vast majority of the baseball population in the province. The objective of the research is the diagnostic and prophylactic ultrasound exploratory study of soft tissue injuries and physiotherapeutic intervention in the population studied. In the analysis of results, it was obtained that the shoulders with tendinitis and tenosynovitis were the most affected injuries, who achieved the best response to the third cycle of the physiotherapy treatment scheme and around 30 days of sessions were needed, with 97% clinical alterations of the lesions and 84% echographic alterations of diagnostic and prophylactic examinations. Ultrasounds as a diagnostic indication allowed confirming lesions and affected regions, guiding better treatment selections and responses to effectiveness; as a prophylactic indication, it allowed to identify hidden injuries fundamentally in pitchers.

Objectives To determine whether ultrasound (US)-detected synovitis affects the therapeutic efficacy of hyaluronic acid (HA) injection for treating knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Patients with symptomatic knee OA were recruited. All the patients received HA injection two times at 2-week intervals. Clinical assessments were performed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) at baseline and 1 and 6 months after treatment. Imaging evaluation was based on complete knee US examination and the Kellgren–Lawrence grading. Suprapatellar synovial fluid (SF) depth, synovial hypertrophy (SH), and vascularity were measured through US. Results In total, 137 patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. All patients demonstrated improvement in VAS and WOMAC scores at 1 and 6 months after treatment (p < 0.001). Moreover, regression model-based analysis revealed significant associations of SF depth with the VAS and WOMAC scores in all patients. Each centimetre increase in the effusion diameter was associated with a decreased in the 1-month post-treatment VAS improvement percentage (15.26; 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 0.05, 29.5; p = 0.042) and 6-month post-treatment WOMAC improvement (37.43; 95% CI = 37.68, 50.69; p < 0.01). However, SH and vascularity were not significantly associated with VAS or WOMAC scores. Conclusion Ultrasound detected suprapatellar effusion predicts reduced efficacy of HA injection in knee OA
