Muscle ultrasound is a valuable addition to the neuromuscular toolkit in both the clinic and
research settings, with proven value and reliability. However, it is currently not fulfilling its full …

Purpose This narrative review provides an overview of the current knowledge of B-mode
ultrasound-derived echo intensity (EI) as an indicator of skeletal muscle quality. Method …

Biomarkers for monitoring of disease progression and response to therapy are lacking for
muscle diseases such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Noninvasive in vivo molecular …

Introduction: The aim of this study was to compare ultrasound echo intensity (EI) with high‐
resolution T1‐weighted MRI and to establish calibration equations to estimate percent …

Introduction: The close relationship existing between aging and thrombosis has growingly
been studied in this last decade. The age‐related development of a prothrombotic …

Congenital muscular dystrophies (CMDs) are early onset disorders of muscle with
histological features suggesting a dystrophic process. The congenital muscular dystrophies …

Ultrasonography can detect structural muscle changes caused by neuromuscular disease.
Quantitative analysis is the preferred method to determine if ultrasound findings are within …

Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to critically discuss the use of
ultrasound in the evaluation of muscle disorders with a particular focus on the emerging use …

Masticatory muscle thickness provides objective measurements of the oral motor function,
which may change in patients with oral myofascial pain. In this study, we aimed to establish …

Driven by increasing numbers of newly identified genetic defects and new insights into the
field of inherited muscle diseases, neuromuscular imaging in general and magnetic …
