[Purpose] We aimed to investigate the change rate in the cross-sectional area of each
hamstring component to evaluate muscle extensibility and to contribute to the studies on
hamstring strain prevention.[Participants and Methods] Fifteen healthy young males
volunteered to participate in this study. They performed a knee extension test. For the
measurements, we used multi-posture magnetic resonance imaging (gravity magnetic
resonance imaging), the open shape of which allows performing body scanning in various …
