Correction: A New Approach to Assess the Gastrocnemius Muscle Volume in Rodents Using Ultrasound; Comparison with the Gastrocnemius Muscle Index
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability and validity of a new non-invasive ultrasound technique to measure gastrocnemius muscle atrophy after nerve denervation in an animal model. METHODS In sixteen rodents an eight mm sciatic nerve gap was created. In the following 8 weeks, each week, two rodents were euthanized and the gastrocnemius muscle was examined using ...

متن کاملEffects of stretching the gastrocnemius muscle.
Many authors currently disagree on the amount of time necessary to provide an adequate stretch flexibility. Since gastrocnemius equinus has been recognized as a cause of athletic injury, the authors performed a study to test what may be an adequate amount of stretching a gastrocnemius to improve flexibility. This study could not be conducted blind, and it was hoped that the contralateral leg co...
متن کاملEstimation of Gastrocnemius Muscle Volume Using Ultrasonography in Children with Spastic Cerebral Palsy
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate useful parameters for estimating gastrocnemius (GCM) muscle volume (MV) using ultrasonography (US) and anthropometry in children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen legs from nine children with spastic CP aged 2 to 6 years were investigated in this study. Tibial length (TL) of each leg was measured and muscle thickness (MT) ...
