No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the relationship between temporal, kinetic, and kinematic jump variables and patellar tendons' structure in athletes. The main research questions are:

Does the structure of the patellar tendon relate to the temporal, kinetic, and kinematic variables of different jumps?

To answer these questions, participants will undergo a UTC (Ultrasound Tissue Characterization) scan of the patellar tendon and perform two vertical jump: a countermovement jump and tuck jump test.
