Hamstring strains, particularly involving the long head of biceps femoris (BFlh) at the
proximal musculotendinous junction (MTJ), are commonly experienced by athletes. With the …

Purpose: To determine i) the reliability of two-dimensional ultrasonography for the
assessment of biceps femoris long head (BFlh) architectural characteristics; ii) if limbs with a …

ABSTRACT PIMENTA, R., AJ BLAZEVICH, and SR FREITAS. Biceps Femoris Long-Head
Architecture Assessed Using Different Sonographic Techniques. Med. Sci. Sports Exerc …

The purpose of this study was to compare the architectural parameters of the long head of
biceps femoris (BFlh) and semitendinosus (ST) muscles by comparing measurements from …

Magnetic resonance and ultrasound imaging have shown hamstring strain injuries occur
most often in the biceps femoris long head (BFLH), and particularly in the proximal vs. distal …

Hamstring muscle injuries are the most prevalent among athletes who engage in sprinting
activities. Their most frequent location is where the long head of the biceps femoris joins with …

Objectives Biceps femoris long‐head architectural assessment using ultrasonography (US)
has not been previously described in detail for both acquisition (image capture) and …

The proximal musculo‐tendinous junction (MTJ) is a common site of hamstring strain injury
but the anatomy of this region is not well defined. A morphometric analysis of the proximal …

PURPOSE To compare biceps femoris long-head (BFlh) fascicle lengths (Lfs) obtained with
different ultrasound-based approaches: 1) single ultrasound images and linear Lf …

Objective To establish a high-resolution US technique that enables a systematic
morphometric examination of the three components that form the distal biceps brachii …
