Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary: </h4> Introduction: The psoas muscle index (PMI) and the skeletal mass index (SMI), as determined by computed tomography (CT), are the reference methods for assessing muscle mass. An alternative method is to measure the area of the rectus femoris muscle using ultrasonography (US).Objective : The objective of this study is twofold: firstly, to assess whether ultrasound imaging of the rectus femoris has...
