Sport activity is common in young and adult population. Muscle injuries affect amateur and professional athletes. It is important the early and accurate diagnosis, for an adequate treatment and follow-up. Imaging are essential in the evaluation of these lesions. It allows determine location, extent, severity and estimate prognosis, as well as the follow-up to determine the return to sport. In this article, microscopic and macroscopic muscle anatomy, types of lesions and their representation in images, on ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance (MRI) are reviewed. Ultrasound generates images of a greater spatial resolution than MRI. It allows real-time functional and dynamic assessment of muscle and tendons. Different classifications described in the literature are mentioned and a nomenclature and description are proposed, based mainly on the muscle anatomy, the location and quantification of the lesion.
