3-2-02. Texture Analysis of Muscle Ultrasound can differentiate myopathic conditions

Muscle sonography may show high densities in various myopathic conditions. Further classification among myopathic conditions could be possible by texture analysis, which analyzes relationships between the neighboring pixel densities.The following groups of subjects were assessed: (1) 19 patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (MD1), (2) 11 patients with inflammatory myopathy (IM), and (3) 16 normal control. A LOGIQe ultrasonography and an 11-MHz linear probe were used to obtain muscle images of medial gastrocnemius.
