A 5-year review of a pitch side radiology unit at an international sports stadium

ConclusionThe PSRU at the Aviva international sports stadium is well utilized and allows for a rapid diagnosis of osseous injuries sustained on the field of play. It provides a useful adjunct to the pitch side clinical assessment by medical staff. It provides a privacy and strategic advantage to players compared with hospital-based services. Consideration should be given to installing similar PSRUs at major sports stadiums around the world.
