Keeping sports safe: physicians should take the lead.
The image is familiar and dramatic. An elite athlete is injured, and a sports medicine physician is at his or her side while the athlete is carried from the field or arena to the sidelines and perhaps to a waiting ambulance. Thousands in the stands and millions more in front of televisions watch the physician practicing sports medicine in a most public way and are reminded that sports participation is a risky business.
