Exploring Whole Body MRI Screening in Athletes
Whole-body MRI is moving beyond diagnosis and into prevention, but is the technology ready and are clinicians prepared to interpret and act on what they find? On this episode of the BackTable Bone & Sport Podcast, host Dr. Larry Balle welcomes back physical therapist/athletic trainer, Dr. Andy Glidewell to dive into the controversy of whole-body MRI screening for athletes and fitness-focused patients. They discuss how imaging has evolved from simple diagnosis to clinical mapping for rehab and performance planning, drawing on experiences like the NFL Combine’s extensive MRI use, and examine both the clinical opportunities and the practical barriers to broader adoption.
