Shear-wave elastography is a method that is increasingly used to assess muscle stiffness in
clinical practice and human health research. Recently, shear-wave elastography has been …

Develo** methods for the non-invasive characterization of the mechanics of
musculoskeletal tissues is an ongoing research focus in biomechanics. Often, these …

Shear wave elastography (SWE) is a clinical ultrasound imaging modality that enables non-
invasive estimation of tissue elasticity. However, various methodological factors—such as …

Introduction Hamstring strain injuries (HSI) and re-injuries are endemic in high-speed
running sports. The biceps femoris long head (BFlh) is the most frequently injured muscle …

Eccentric training proved to be effective in hamstring injury prevention; however, little is
known about effects of eccentric hamstring training at long muscle length on hamstring …

This study assessed the differences in muscle stiffness of the medial gastrocnemius (MG)
and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles at rest and contraction during ovulation and follicular …

Objective To determine the value of shear wave elastography (SWE) in assessing
abdominal wall muscles, including rectus abdominis (RA), external oblique muscle (EO) …

Magnetic Resonance Elastography allows noninvasive visualization of tissue mechanical
properties by measuring the displacements resulting from applied stresses, and fitting a …

Purpose Ultrasound is commonly used to measure changes in skeletal muscle morphology
in response to both acute and chronic resistance exercise, but little is known on how muscle …

Purpose The study aimed to assess whether the more limiting factor in reproducibility of
shear wave elastography (SWE) would be the operator dependency or the incompatibility of …
