Experienced sonographers captured videos of bilateral Achilles tendons, patellar tendons, and plantar fascia during annual preparticipation examinations, then repeated the imaging at 1\u2010 and 2\u2010year intervals in an identical manner. Videos were then analyzed in a blinded manner, assessing for abnormalities in echogenicity, tendon thickening, and neovascularization. Athletes also reported pain at the time of the assessment and any injuries experienced.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 22 athletes (44 patellar tendons, 44 Achilles tendons, 44 plantar fasciae) completed the study. Prevalence of abnormalities at baseline were 34.1%, 18.2%, and 6.8% for patellar tendons, Achilles tendons, and plantar fasciae, respectively. No tendons or fasciae with abnormalities returned to normal over 2\u2009years, and three tendons (all Achilles) transitioned from a normal to abnormal sonographic appearance, each with associated pain development.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This prospective study demonstrated that any baseline sonographic abnormality of the Achilles tendon, patellar tendon, and plantar fascia identified in this small cohort of collegiate athletes remained abnormal over 2\u2009years. Additionally, only three new abnormalities in the Achilles tendon developed, each associated with symptoms. These findings challenge the idea that ultrasound\u2010detected abnormalities suggestive of tendinopathy are transient and fluctuate in this athletic population.<\/jats:p>\n
