The professional and recreational demands of modern society make the treatment of muscle injury an increasingly important clinical problem, particularly in the athletic population. In the elite athlete, significant financial and professional pressures may also exist that emphasize the need for accurate diagnosis and treatment. With new advances in ultrasound technology, images of exquisite detail allow diagnosis of muscle injury that matches the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Furthermore, the benefits of real-time and Doppler imaging, ability to perform interventional procedures, and relative cost benefits compared with MRI place ultrasound at the forefront for investigation for these injuries in many circumstances. Muscle injury may be divided into acute and chronic pathology, with muscle strain injury the most common clinical problem presenting to sports physicians. This article reviews the spectrum of acute and chronic muscle injuries, with particular attention to clinical features and some common or important muscle strain injuries.
现代社会的职业和娱乐需求使得肌肉损伤的治疗成为一个日益重要的临床问题，尤其是在运动员群体中。对于精英运动员而言，可能还存在巨大的经济和职业压力，这凸显了准确诊断和治疗的必要性。随着超声技术的新进展，高分辨率图像能够实现与磁共振成像（MRI）准确度相当的肌肉损伤诊断。此外，实时和多普勒成像的优势、进行介入操作的能力以及与MRI相比相对的成本效益，使得超声在许多情况下成为这些损伤检查的首选。肌肉损伤可分为急性和慢性病变，其中肌肉拉伤是运动医学医生面临的最常见临床问题。本文综述了急慢性肌肉损伤的范围，特别关注临床特征以及一些常见或重要的肌肉拉伤。
