Reliability of Ultrasound Measures of M. Gastrocnemius Pennation Angle
There are currently few studies in the literature concerning the reliability and validity of the quantification of parameters of muscle architecture using the technique of ultrasound. The aim of this study is to apply the technique of ultrasound imaging to quantify pennation angle of gastrocnemius muscle (medial and lateral) and to determine the reliability and reproducibility of these measures...
متن کاملHuman gastrocnemius medialis pennation angle as a function of age: from newborn to the elderly.
The aim of the present study was to quantify changes in human skeletal muscle pennation angle (F theta) values during growth and adult life. The human gastrocnemius medialis muscle of 162 subjects (96 males and 66 females) in the age range 0-70 years was scanned with ultrasonography. The subjects were laying prone, at rest, with the ankle maintained at 90 degrees with all muscles relaxed. F the...
متن کاملDynamic measurement of pennation angle of gastrocnemius muscles during contractions based on ultrasound imaging
BACKGROUND Muscle fascicle pennation angle (PA) is an important parameter related to musculoskeletal functions, and ultrasound imaging has been widely used for measuring PA, but manually and frame by frame in most cases. We have earlier reported an automatic method to estimate aponeurosis orientation based on Gabor transform and Revoting Hough Transform (RVHT). METHODS In this paper, we propo...
متن کاملChanges in muscular pennation angle after crenotherapy.
UNLABELLED Muscular architecture involves the organization of fibres in the muscle and is one of the most important factors of muscular function. Studies have demonstrated an association with muscular architecture and contraction, with an increase of the pennation angle in muscles. The aim of the study was to evaluate the change of muscular pennation angle after therapy with warm thermal water ...
متن کاملForce-length characteristics of the in vivo human gastrocnemius muscle.
In this study, the force-length characteristics of the in vivo medial (GM) and lateral (GL) heads of the human gastrocnemius muscle were estimated from measurements in eight healthy male subjects. This involved: 1) dynamometry-based measurements of the moment generated during maximal isometric plantar flexion; 2) ultrasound-based measurements of fascicular length and pennation angle; and 3) ult...
