Background Skeletal muscle experiences both quantitative and qualitative changes with
aging. Echo intensity (EI) of the skeletal muscle obtained by ultrasonography (US) has been …

This study was designed to compare intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) changes during 60 min of
submaximal exercise in men and women. Eighteen moderately active (18–38 yr) men (n= 9) …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether ultrastructural changes in
intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) and mitochondria occur with aging. Muscle samples were …

Exercise-induced muscle damage is a well documented phenomenon particularly resulting
from eccentric exercise. When eccentric exercise is unaccustomed or is performed with an …

Abstract High‐field MRI at 3.0 T is rapidly gaining clinical acceptance and experiencing
more widespread use. The superiority of high‐field imaging has clearly been demonstrated …

Fat suppression is an important technique in musculoskeletal imaging to improve the
visibility of bone-marrow lesions; evaluate fat in soft-tissue masses; optimize the contrast-to …

Purpose To evaluate a chemical shift‐based fat quantification technique in the rotator cuff
muscles in comparison with the semiquantitative Goutallier fat infiltration classification (GC) …

Exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) is commonly experienced following either a bout
of unaccustomed physical activity or following physical activity of greater than normal …

Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H MRS) offers interesting metabolic information
even from organs outside the brain. In the first part, applications in skeletal muscle for …

Mitochondria in skeletal muscle tissue can undergo rapid and characteristic changes as a
consequence of manipulations of muscle use and environmental conditions. Endurance …
