Skeletal muscle ultrasound.
Muscle ultrasound is a convenient technique to visualize normal and pathological muscle tissue as it is non-invasive and real-time. Neuromuscular disorders give rise to structural muscle changes that can be visualized with ultrasound: atrophy can be objectified by measuring muscle thickness, while infiltration of fat and fibrous tissue increases muscle echo intensity, i.e. the muscles become wh...

this study was a clinical trial performed using consecutive method of samplind for 3.5 years in the physiotherapy clinic of Rafsanjan university of medocal sciences.the purpose of this research was to evaluate the effect of the ultrasound along with muscle stretch with ultrasound and muscle stretch along in the treatment of the myofascial trigger points(MTPs).one haundred and twenty patients wh...
متن کاملMuscle ultrasound
Our study aimed to evaluate the utility of muscle ultrasound in newborn screening of infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) and to establish a system of severity grading. We retrospectively selected 35 patients with initial low acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA) activity and collected data including muscle ultrasound features, GAA gene mutation, activity/performance, and pathological and laboratory fin...
متن کاملEffects of low-intensity pulsed ultrasound on injured skeletal muscle.
BACKGROUND Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been shown to stimulate tissue metabolism and accelerate muscle healing. However, the optimal parameters in the use of LIPUS are still not clear. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of LIPUS on muscle healing in rats subjected to a cryolesion. METHOD Twenty rats were divided into the following groups: an injured c...
متن کاملDevelopment of Ultrasound Based Techniques for Measuring Skeletal Muscle Motion
This thesis examines the use of ultrasound imaging to study human skeletal muscle in terms of its relative motion and stiffness. The thesis provides background information on skeletal muscle anatomy, ultrasound physics and techniques that are currently used to study muscles. This is followed by a presentation and analysis of simulation and in vivo results. In order to accurately study muscle mo...
