Discover how musculoskeletal imaging informs high-stakes decisions in professional sports. This case-based webinar uses didactic lecture to explore the critical role radiologists play in evaluating pre‑signing injuries, recognizing joint pathology and guiding return‑to‑play decisions. With focused insight into professional soccer and baseball, you’ll examine adaptive changes and remodeling of the elbow and glenohumeral joints and learn how imaging directly influences transfer outcomes. Real‑world cases and characteristic examples reinforce how imaging supports confident, informed decision making in professional sports.

The following Content Areas will be printed on the certificate for this course:
- Musculoskeletal Radiology
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the adaptive remodeling of the elbow and glenohumeral joints and the joint forces generated in professional and amateur baseball.
