Do careful palpation and MRI predict the time to return to pre-injury level of performance in elite sprinters with acute first-time hamstring strains?
Early clinical palpation and MRI evaluation can help predict return to play timelines for elite sprinters with acute hamstring strains.
Careful palpation during the first 3 weeks after injury and magnetic resonance imaging investigation performed during the first 6 weeks after injury provide valuable information that can be used to predict the time to return to pre-injury level of performance in elite sprinting.
