Is the clinical condition sovereign in the postCOVID high-performance athlete? Decisions based only on imaging studies?

While opinions may vary as events unfold, we believe -at least for now- that returning to high-performance sports should be based on clinical aspects (including, when necessary, inflammatory markers), ECG, echocardiography, Holter, and exercise testing. Magnetic resonance imaging would be reserved, in asymptomatic athletes, as a second-level test, depending on the findings in the first assessment.
