Just published in AJSM. Similar findings to those already published by William Berrigan, MD, RMSK and Zach Bailowitz MD, RMSK. Platelet concentration/dose influences outcomes! As you read the literature make sure you take note of platelet dose in the pos/neg PRP trials. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/03…

Looking forward to IOF this week! I’ll be diving into the basic science of platelet concentration and dose, and their impact on clinical outcomes. Hope to see you there!

Had an amazing time at #IOFMAX this weekend! Honored to present alongside such talented colleagues. One of the highlights was the expert panel on knee OA, featuring Zach Bailowitz MD, RMSK, and his expertise on high-dose PRP— or as Dr. Bansal says, “adequate” dose PRP. Great discussion!

Proud to share our latest study on ultrasound shear wave elastography for measuring tendon stiffness in the patellar & Achilles tendons. A promising tool for injury detection & treatment monitoring! 🦵📊 Dr. Ken Mautner Check it out: [mdpi.com/2075-4418/15/7…]
