Longitudinal study of MRI and functional outcome measures in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

Abstract Background Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a patchy and slowly progressive disease of skeletal muscle. For MRI to be a useful biomarker in an FSHD clinical trial, it should reliably detect changes over relatively short time-intervals (~ 1 year). We hypothesized that fatty c...
