Beschreibung
This concise volume in the Encyclopaedia of Sports Medicine series, published under the auspices of the International Olympic Committee, provides a dependable source of current knowledge available on tendinopathy and covers both the basic science and clinical aspects of the subject. Despite its high incidence, the precise etiopathogenesis and effective treatment of tendinopathy remain elusive. Tendinopathy in Athletes draws on the expertise of an international and prolific collection of contributors, both clinicians and scientists, who provide new insights into this specialized area. This book: * provides a comprehensive resource for both clinicians and researchers with information organized logically, with an easy-to-follow progression from the basic scientific findings to clinical applications * discusses the full range of treatment modalities, including new molecular and biological approaches, plus surgical and alternative approaches to tendinopath * contains "What We Need to Know" sections that suggest future areas of research for young investigators.
As tendinopathy remains one of the most common injuries encountered, both in sports and at the workplace, this essential volume is sure to be a source of frequent consultation.

Rezensionen / Stimmen
"The editors of the work coordinated the contributions of forty-seven specialists in medical, sports and health science related fields. Recommended for specialists in sports medicine and orthopedics and for medical libraries and academic libraries with kinesiology, physical therapy and sports medicine curriculum." (E-Streams, September 2008) "This is a good read for those with a strong interest in tendinopathy...the book does provide a quality and in-depth summation of the current knowledge."

Person
Professor Savio L-Y. Woo, PhD, DSc, is the Whiteford Professor of Bioengineering and the Director of the Musculoskeletal Research Centre (MSRC). This is a diverse multidisciplinary research and educational center in the Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pittsburgh where over 450 orthopaedic surgeons, bioengineering students and staff have studied and worked. He arrived at the University of Pittsburgh in 1990 after spending 20 years at the University of California in San Diego as a Professor of Surgery and Bioengineering. Dr. Woo has been elected to the Institute of Medicine, The National Academy of Engineering and Academia Sinica. In 1998, he was the winner of the IOC Olympic Prize for Sports Medicine and the first Olympic Gold Medal in Nagano, Japan Professor Per A.F.H. Renstrom is a professor in sports medicine at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden Professor Steven P. Arnoczky, DVM, is the Director, of the Laboratory for Comparative Orthopaedic Research at Michigan State University and has been working in the area of musculoskeletal research for over 30 years. His basic science research in the area of musculoskeletal tissue injury and repair has resulted in numerous clinical advances in the field of orthopaedic sports medicine. His current research interests involve the role of mechanical signalling in the etiopathogenesis of tendinopathy
