Functional imaging might increase the role of imaging in muscular diseases, since
alterations of muscle morphology alone are not specific for a particular disease. Perfusion …

The purpose of this study was to systematically review published studies (2000–2014)
carried out on the application of ultrasonography (US) to evaluation of skeletal muscle size …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful tool to assess the severity, distribution, and
progression of muscle injury and disease. However, a muscle's response to a pathological …

Dermato‐or polymyositis must be diagnosed or ruled out early because early
immunosuppressive therapy prevents irreversible muscle degeneration. Acute poly‐and …

In humans affected with inflammatory myopathies, regions of altered signal intensity are
found on magnetic resonance (MR) images of affected muscles. Although electromyography …

Imaging techniques have assumed increasing importance in the diagnostic approach to
patients with muscle disease. These techniques include computed tomography, ultra-sound …

Objective: The aim of this prospective study was to investigate the diagnostic value of
quantitative skeletal muscle ultrasonography in children suspected of having a …

Background context The functional role of rectus capitis posterior minor (RCPm) muscles is
not well defined. To the best of our knowledge, electromyographic (EMG) data from RCPm …

Context Osteopathic physicians often target the rectus capitis posterior minor (RCPm) and
rectus capitis posterior major (RCPM) muscles when using muscle energy or soft tissue …

Funktionelle Bildgebungstechniken tragen zur wachsenden Rolle der Bildgebung bei
Muskelerkrankungen bei, da Änderungen in der Morphologie des Skelettmuskels alleine als …
