High-frequency ultrasonography of skeletal muscle in children with neuromuscular disease.
Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine : Official Journal of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine 1988 September
Ultrasonography of the thigh and calf was performed in 24 children who had primary neuromuscular disease and in 20 healthy children. The ultrasound image was clearly abnormal in all patients with progressive muscular dystrophy, and in the majority of children with benign myopathic disorders; the principal changes were increased muscular echogenicity and increased attenuation of ultrasound with a reduced bone surface echo. In 13 patients, the ultrasound findings were correlated with pathologic changes seen in muscle biopsy specimens: a clear correlation (r = .85) was found. Muscular dystrophies had a higher score of abnormal ultrasonographic and microscopic findings, while the more benign muscular diseases had a lower score.
