Background: Achilles tendinopathy (AT) is initiated asymptomatically and is therefore often
discovered at a very late stage. Purpose: To elucidate whether the microvascular volume …

Background Neovascularisation can be detected qualitatively by Power Doppler in Achilles
tendinopathy. Quantitative data regarding tendon microcirculation have not been …

ABSTRACT GRIGG, NL, SC WEARING, and JE SMEATHERS. Achilles Tendinopathy Has
an Aberrant Strain Response to Eccentric Exercise. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc., Vol. 44, No. 1 …

Aim To evaluate the imaging of the natural history of Achilles tendinopathy
microvascularisation in comparison with symptoms, using a validated disease-specific …

Objectives The role of neovascularisation in tendinopathy is still poorly understood,
potentially due to technical limitations of conventional power Doppler ultrasound. This study …

Background: Several risk factors have been suggested in the development of Achilles
tendinopathy, but large-scale prospective studies are limited. Purpose: To investigate the …

Background: Intratendinous Doppler activity has been interpreted as an equivalent of
neovessels in the Achilles tendon and as a sign of tendinosis (AT). Aim: To evaluate the …

Achilles tendinopathy affects many running athletes and often leads to chronic pain and
functional deficits. Although changes in tendon structure have been linked with …

The incidence of Achilles tendinopathy is very high in young female gymnasts (17.5%).
According to literature, ecography screenings show the tendons thickening, but at the same …

Abstract Purpose and Hypothesis Mid‐portion Achilles tendinopathy is characterized by a
proliferation of small vessels, called neovascularization, which can be demonstrated by …
