First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study from the University of Leicester looked at 90 people who had finished rehabilitation for a torn Achilles tendon. Researchers used ultrasound imaging, strength tests, and questionnaires to see how well the tendon and calf muscles had healed. The goal was to understand what recovery looks like at different stages, not to test a new treatment.
