Authors Docking SI, Rosengarten SD, Cook J Publisher Scand J Med Sci Sports. 2015 May 5. doi; 10.1111/sms. 12469. Publishing detail PMID: 25943892 Abstract Pre-season injuries are common and may be due to a reintroduction of training loads. Tendons are sensitive to changes in load, making them vulnerable to injury in the…

Authors van Schie HT and Bakker EM Publisher Am J Vet Res 2000; 61(2): 202-209. Publishing detail PMID: 10685694 Abstract Objective: To develop a method to discriminate between structure-related echoes and echoes resulting from interference, as observed in transverse ultrasonographic images of equine superficial digital flexor (SDF) tendons. Sample population: 2 normal (injury-free)…

Authors van Schie HT, Bakker EM, Jonker AM and van Weeren PR Publisher Am J Vet Res 2000; 61(2): 210-219 Publishing detail PMID: 10685695 Abstract Objective: To correlate quantitative analysis of ultrasonographic images of normal (injury-free) equine superficial digital flexor (SDF) tendons and equine SFD tendons that have pathologic changes with corresponding histologic sections.…
