A Novel Application of Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Imaging

Ultrasound Imaging of Muscle Contraction of the Tibialis Anterior in Patients with Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy

“…While MRI measurements can provide detailed information about muscle structures, its ability to quantify muscle deformation during natural activities (e.g., gait) is limited. US imaging systems are developing toward portable systems that allow us to study muscle contraction during highly dynamic tasks (Eranki et al 2013).…”
