Tendon Health and Musculoskeletal Ultrasound in Elite Basketball - Sameer Mehta

Welcome to the Performance & Sport Science Study Group Webinars, we invite speakers who complement the NSCA’s Essentials of Sport Science textbook, demonstrating how the NSCA CPSS chapter concepts are applied in real-world scenarios! The video features a discussion led by Sameer, a physical therapist for the Orlando Magic, focusing on the use of musculoskeletal (MSK) ultrasound in assessing tendon health among elite basketball players.

Sameer shares insights into how ultrasound serves as a valuable tool for diagnosis, rehabilitation, and research to improve athletes' performance and manage injury risks effectively. He emphasizes the importance of understanding tendon pathology, risk profiling, and optimizing training based on ultrasound assessments.
