Overview

Retrospective cohort study evaluates signal intensity changes after ACL reconstruction, indicating RTP timing may not affect remodeling.

Key Points

  • Return to performance after ACL reconstruction does not influence graft signal intensity reduction.
  • The mean SNQ values did not vary over time, indicating stable signal intensity across the observed periods.
  • Higher body mass index positively correlates with signal intensity change in the early months post-surgery.
  • No significant differences were found in SNQ values between athletes who returned to play and those who did not.
