Muscle ultrasound is a useful tool of the neuromuscular disease. On muscle ultrasound, we can detect the affected muscle as increase of muscle echo intensity because of the fibrosis and fatty infiltration. Muscle atrophy and thickened muscle fascia are also visualized with muscle ultrasound. Another advantage of muscle ultrasound compared to other imaging technique is to visualize muscle moveme...

متن کاملRectus Femoris Muscle Volume Estimate by Ultrasonography
Imaging techniques allow in vivo measurement of parameters studied in vitro or ex vivo and thus greater reliability regarding muscle mechanics in real situations. Some muscle architecture parameters are directly related to force production, mainly the volume. It can be estimated by the sum of segmental volumes (product of the sum of crosssectional areas and the distance between them) of sequent...
