The use of a portable ultra-sound machine on Taekwondo site


Nov 2017 -- A key innovation World Taekwondo has introduced is the use of a portable ultra-sound machine on site.

Dr. Jeong explains that by using the machine on site as a diagnostic tool, the medical team has been able to decrease by 35% the number of injury that need to go to hospital. This not only saves the athletes’ time and hassle but also reduces costs.

World Taekwondo is a leader in this regard with very few other federations using this technology.

In a combat sport, like taekwondo it is important to find the balance between ensuring player safety while remaining true to its martial arts roots.

“Sometimes it is difficult to keep the balance,” Dr. Jeong explains. “Our first priority is to ensure athlete safety. But by developing better protection equipment we can keep the same intensity of fighting while still protecting the athletes.”
