Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Musculoskeletal injuries are one of the most common pathologies among athletes and the general population. The approach to these injuries includes diagnosis, assessment, physical therapy treatment and rehabilitation. However, the area of prevention of these injuries is becoming increasingly important. Studies that help to improve knowledge in each of these areas will improve the professionalism of the different health and training professions.
This Special Issue of Sports aims to create a multidisciplinary forum for the discussion of the latest developments in this area and thus invites authors to submit original research and/or specific reviews that improve our understanding of the prevention and rehabilitation of training injuries. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following: musculoskeletal injuries, diagnostic imaging, biomechanics, functional evaluation, performance analysis, advanced technologies, physiotherapy, physical exercise, and readaptation.
