About the Project
The overall objective of this clinical trial is to understand the effects of modified Brostrom repair with suture tape augmentation and photobiomodulation therapy on the clinical outcomes of lateral ankle ligament repair to improve functional recovery and enhance return to duty/activity rates of active-duty service members and civilians alike. The central hypothesis is that combining a modified Brostrom repair with suture tape augmentation with photobiomodulation therapy will enhance the clinical outcomes for lateral ankle ligament repair due to enhanced mechanical stability from suture tape augmentation, and reduced pain and inflammation, enhanced blood flow, and enhanced collagen production from photobiomodulation therapy.

Market context
Texas allied-health employers often look for CT technologists with current ARRT registration, Texas Medical Board CMRT, AHA BLS, and prior CT experience, so demand tends to favor candidates who already meet core credentialing requirements. These roles are competitive because employers need clinicians who can work independently, maintain imaging quality, and keep pace with patient volume.
