Abstract:Objectives
To develop an objective method based on texture analysis on MRI for diagnosis of congenital muscular torticollis (CMT).
Material and methods
The T1- and T2-weighted imaging, Q-dixon, and T1-mapping MRI data of 38 children with CMT were retrospectively analyzed. The region of interest (ROI) was manually drawn at the level of the largest cross-sectional area of the SCM on the affected side. MaZda software was used to obtain the texture fea… Show more
