Diagnostics in sports injuries
Taking part in sport is healthy. But every sportsman, whether a competitive or a recreational athlete, can be injured in training or competition. Sports injuries to the joints and muscles are among the most common clinical problems.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the diagnostic procedure of choice in order to visualize the extent of a sports injury in a few minutes and without pain. Based on the results of the examination, further treatment can be optimally planned.
