Foreword
It is an honor and a privilege to have been asked to write the Foreword for this outstanding book. The editors, Dr. Andrew J. Grainger and Dr. Emma Rowbotham, are both Fellows of the Royal College of Radiologists and are recognized as world authorities in the field of sports medicine and musculoskeletal imaging. Both editors provided imaging services to the 2012 London Olympics. I worked with Dr. Grainger when he was a Clinical Research Fellow at UCSF and have great regard for his intelligence and sense of humor. Since then, he has become an excellent researcher, clinician, and educator. Dr. Grainger has recently taken a Consultant post at Cambridge University Hospital following his time as a Consultant at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, where he worked with co-editor Dr. Rowbotham. Prior to taking up her post in Leeds she was a Consultant Musculoskeletal Radiologist in Bath, where she developed her interest in sports imaging, in particular working with colleagues and athletes from the English Institute of Sport. Both of the authors provide diagnostic and interventional support to many professional athletes and are popular lecturers in sports imaging.
