Introduction: Motocross is a sport in which riders race 250–450 cc four-stroke dirt bikes and are potentially subjected to a high frequency of head injuries starting at a very young age. The objective of this case series is to present the findings following gradient echo T2-weighted MRI (SWI) upon clinical evaluation after a concussion in 4 young professional motocross racers.
Clinical Findings: Microhemorrhages were found in 2 of 4 riders. Areas of microhemorrhages were not aligned with a previously positive CT finding from a prior concussion in 1 rider.
Conclusions: Microhemorrhages were found in 2 young motocross riders following a …

Adipose tissue (AT) has diverse and important functions in body insulation, mechanical protection, energy metabolism and the endocrine system. Despite its relative abundance in the human body, the clinical significance of AT in musculoskeletal (MSK) medicine, particularly its role in painful MSK conditions, is under-recognized. Pain associated with AT can be divided into intrinsic (AT as a primary pain generator), extrinsic (AT as a secondary pain generator) or mixed origin. Understanding AT as an MSK pain generator, both by mechanism and its specific role in pain generation by body region, enhances the clinical decision-making process and guides therapeutic strategies in …
Injury Prevention Among Professional Ballet Dancers – A Qualitative Study, Elizabeth Balyakina, Nathan J. Hershberger, Sajid A. Surve, Rita M. Patterson
Injury Prevention Among Professional Ballet Dancers – A Qualitative Study, Elizabeth Balyakina, Nathan J. Hershberger, Sajid A. Surve, Rita M. Patterson
Neuromusculoskeletal
Rationale: The physical stress placed on ballet dancers’ bodies during their professional career predisposes them to injury. Qualitative research can be used to examine ways to support current strategies that dancers use to stay healthy and to inform further research in areas where dancers may be most prone to injury.
Purpose: To examine therapies and strategies dancers use to keep healthy and to treat injury.
Educational Objectives:
At the end of the presentation, the participants will be able to:
- Describe the most common strategies dancers use to stay healthy
- Formulate an understanding of how professional dancers manage injury
- Identify the …
