    Background: Discrepancies exist in the literature regarding the association of the extent of injuries assessed on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with recovery times. Hypothesis: MRI-detected edema in grade 1 hamstring injuries does not affect the return to play (RTP). Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Methods: Grade 1 hamstring injuries from 22 professional soccer players were retrospectively reviewed. The extent of edema-like changes on fluid-sensitive sequences from 1.5-T MRI were evaluated using craniocaudal length, percentage of cross-sectional area, and volume. The time needed to RTP was the outcome. Negative binomial regression analysis tested the measurements of MRI-detected edema-like changes as prognostic factors. Results: The mean craniocaudal length was 7.6 cm (SD, 4.9 cm
