Computer-aided detection of fasciculations and other movements in muscle with ultrasound: development and clinical application

Muscle ultrasound imaging is an increasingly important addition to the diagnostic arsenal for diagnosing neuromuscular disease, providing an anatomical assessment of muscle structure to complement standard neurological examination and electrophysiologic function testing (Simon, 2015). In addition to its well-known advantages of being patient-friendly, non-invasive and a point of care imaging technique, the dynamic nature of ultrasound images as a result of the high temporal resolution enables visualization of spontaneous or voluntary muscle movements, including fasciculations.
