"Law & Order: SVU" star Mariska Hargitay has returned to work just two weeks after she suffered a serious injury, according to People.com.

Reps for both the 45-year-old actress and the show's production company say she is back on the set today in her role as Det. Olivia Benson. Production reportedly halted last week due to her injury, a partially collapsed lung.

The recent Golden Globe and SAG award nominated star (she's an Emmy winner and a previous year Globe winner) also missed both award show ceremonies this year to recover from her setback.
