Il testo è uno strumento di consultazione per gli studenti dei Corsi di Studio in Scienze motorie e sportive, Osteopatia, Fisioterapia e gli Specializzandi in Medicina dello sport. Le moderne tecniche di imaging hanno permesso di affinare sempre di più la diagnostica per immagini nella patologia sportiva dell'apparato locomotore e cardio-vascolare. Nel testo sono trattati i principi generali delle radiazioni X, le apparecchiature radiologiche, la formazione delle immagini e le applicazioni in medicina sportiva della radiologia tradizionale analogica e digitale. Ampio spazio è, inoltre, dedicato ai concetti basilari, alle apparecchiature e alle applicazioni cliniche delle moderne metodiche tomografiche, come l'ecografia, la tomografia computerizzata e la risonanza magnetica, e alle loro applicazioni in tema di patologia sportiva. Sono delineati con supporto iconografico i principali quadri clinico-radiologici riguardanti non solo la patologia traumatica, ma anche i quadri patologici correlati allo sport, come il sovraccarico funzionale e le instabilità articolari. È presente, inoltre, un capitolo riguardante il cuore dello sportivo, argomento di attualità e interesse medico-sportivo.
