Thickness of Biceps and Quadriceps Femoris Muscle Measured Using Point-of-Care Ultrasound as a Representation of Total Skeletal Muscle Mass

Hogenbirk, Rianne N. M.; Viddeleer, Alain R.; Hentzen, Judith E. K. R.; van der Plas, Willemijn Y.; van der Schans, Cees P; de Bock, Geertruida H; Kruijff, Schelto; Klaase, Joost M

Generalized loss of muscle mass is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer. The gold standard to measure muscle mass is by using computed tomography (CT). However, the aim of this prospective observational cohort study was to determine whether point-of-care ultrasound …

BACKGROUND: Survival of kidney transplant recipients (KTR) is low compared with the general population. Low muscle mass and muscle strength may contribute to lower survival, but practical measures of muscle status suitable for routine care have not been evaluated for their association with long-term …
