Muscle Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography as a Non-Invasive Biomarker in Myotonia

Myotonia, i.e., delayed muscle relaxation in certain hereditary muscle disorders, can be assessed quantitatively using different techniques ranging from force measurements to electrodiagnostics. Ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) has been proposed as a novel tool in biomechanics and neuromuscu...
