075. Tendinopathy, imaging and diagnosis with Dr Sean Docking

Tendinopathy patients may present for treatment with an ultrasound or MRI report in hand, unsure how you can help them, or how they can possibly recover when they have so much tendon pathology. To add insult to injury, they may even have a partial tendon tear on their imaging report thrown into the mix. How do imaging results impact your treatment and your patient's recovery? Are the imaging findings relevant to their pain?

In this Physio Edge podcast with Dr Sean Docking (Physiotherapist, PhD), you will explore what information imaging actually provides in your tendinopathy patients, how to explain imaging to your patients, and whether partial tendon tears identified on imaging will effect your treatment. You will also discover:

Who develops tendon pathology
If patients have tendon pathology on imaging, is this responsible for their symptoms, or will it cause future tendon pain
Asymptomatic tendon pathology in sports people
How tendon pathology can actually be linked to better performance
Can we prevent tendon pathology
The advantages and disadvantages of different imaging types, including
MRI
Ultrasound
Ultrasound tissue characterisation (UTC)
Why a thickened tendon may actually be helpful in recovery
How can we actually diagnose tendinopathy
When is imaging useful
Differential diagnosis of Achilles pain, including - Achilles tendinopathy - Paratenonitis - Plantaris associated tendinopathy
Partial tendon tears, the accuracy of identification, and how they impact your treatment
