It is part of the chapter on sports medicine in the Self-Directed Medical Knowledge Program for practitioners and trainees in physical medicine and rehabilitation. This article covers the role of the physiatrist in sports medicine and presents an overview of the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of sports-related injuries.
