This 90-minute webinar examines musculoskeletal ultrasound as a decision-support tool in the Return to Play (RTP) process, not a clearance test based on tissue appearance alone. Through elite sport case examples, participants learn to integrate ultrasound findings with clinical assessment, load tolerance, and sport-specific demands, enhancing clinical reasoning, avoiding imaging-driven errors, and improving communication with athletes, coaches, and medical teams.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

  • How to correctly interpret ultrasound findings in the context of RTP and high-performance sport
  • How ultrasound can be used as a tool to support injury prevention strategies
  • How to take decisions when imaging findings do not match symptoms
  • How to combine imaging with clinical signs, functional testing, and load response
  • Common pitfalls and misinterpretations of ultrasound during the RTP phase
  • How to use ultrasound to support progression decisions rather than unnecessarily delaying return to play
  • Strategies to communicate imaging findings effectively to athletes and staff

Why should you follow this webinar?
Return to Play decisions are often influenced by imaging findings, but they are not always used correctly. This webinar provides clinicians with a structured, evidence-informed framework to use ultrasound responsibly and effectively within RTP, based on experience in high-pressure performance environments.
By shifting the focus from “tissue healing” to functional capacity and performance readiness, clinicians can reduce fear-based decision-making, optimize load progression, and improve outcomes in high-performance sport.
This webinar is especially relevant for clinicians working in sport who aim to balance risk management, performance demands, and athlete confidence.
