Recent years have seen tremendous progress towards therapy of many previously incurable
neuromuscular diseases. This new context has acted as a driving force for the development …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is increasingly applied to study skeletal muscle physiology,
anatomy, and pathology. The reason for this growing interest is that DTI offers unique …

Purpose To develop a protocol for diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) of the complete upper legs
and to demonstrate feasibility of detection of subclinical sports-related muscle changes in …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is a popular method to assess differences in fiber
organization in diseased and healthy muscle tissue. Previous work has shown that muscle …

The mechanical functions of muscles involve the generation of force and the actuation of
movement by shortening or lengthening under load. These functions are influenced, in part …

Purpose: To design a time‐efficient patient‐friendly clinical diffusion tensor MRI protocol and
postprocessing tool to study the complex muscle architecture of the human forearm …

Neuromuscular diseases are characterized by progressive muscle degeneration and
muscle weakness resulting in functional disabilities. While each of these diseases is …

The purpose of this study was to evaluate temporal stability, multi‐center reproducibility and
the influence of covariates on a multimodal MR protocol for quantitative muscle imaging and …

Muscle diseases commonly have clinical presentations of inflammation, fat infiltration,
fibrosis, and atrophy. However, the results of existing laboratory tests and clinical …

MRI examinations are accurate for diagnosing sports‐related acute hamstring injuries.
However, sensitive imaging methods for assessing recovery of these injuries are lacking …
