<b>Muscle thickness and muscle quality measured by ultrasound: influence of different sites of measurement</b> DOI: 10.5007/1980-0037.2011v13n2p87

The aims of this study were: a) to investigate differences in muscle thickness (MT) measured by ultrasound and muscle quality (MQ) at three sites in the elbow flexors and knee extensors, and b) to correlate MT with isometric force production of the elbow flexors and knee extensors. Sixty-nine young...
