About this study
The authors hypothesize that asymptomatic structural changes found at the lateral ankle via sonographic examination will be associated with increased risk of future ankle injury.
Aims, purpose, and/or objectives (primary, secondary, and exploratory):
Primary aim: Examine the likelihood of experiencing a time-loss lateral ankle injury in athletes with baseline pre-season ultrasound abnormalities compared to those without abnormalities
Secondary aim: Identify, describe, and report prevalence of pre-season asymptomatic sonographic abnormalities in the structures of the lateral ankle
