Usefulness of a newly developed ultrasonic system to estimate skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength in community-dwelling older adults

Usefulness of a newly developed ultrasonic system to estimate skeletal muscle mass and muscle strength in community-dwelling older adults

Abstract Measuring skeletal muscle mass index using bioelectrical impedance analysis or dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is challenging for home care patients and those with implanted devices. Contrastingly, ultrasound measurement of skeletal muscle mass is a simple and non-invasive method. We aimed...
