Correlation between manual measurements and an automated algorithm in measuring muscle thickness, pennation angle and fascicle length.

Stijn Janssen (Student); Rob van den Heuvel (Begeleider)

Little is known about muscle in dynamic conditions. This is partly due to the fact that it takes a lot of time to process the images manually. At the Technical University Eindhoven an automated algorithm is being devoloped to reduce the time needed. The aim of this study was to correlate te automated …

Application of ultrasound for muscle assessment in sarcopenia: towards standardized measurements

Perkisas, Stany; Bakker, Stephan; Bauer, Juergen; Beckwee, David; De Cock, Anne-Marie; Hobbelen, Johannes (Ageing And Allied Health Care); Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing); Kasiukiewicz, Agnieszka; Landi, Francesco; Marco, Ester; Merello, Ana; Piotrowicz, Karolina; Sanchez, Elisabet; Sanchez-Rodriguez, Dolores; Scafoglieri, Aldo; Cruz-Jentoft, Alfonso; Vandewoude, Maurits

Purpose: Measurement of muscle mass is paramount in the screening and diagnosis of sarcopenia. Besides muscle quantity however, also quality assessment is important. Ultrasonography (US) has the advantage over dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and bio-impedance analysis (BIA) to give both quantitative …

Response to: "The use of ultrasound for the estimation of muscle mass: one site fits most?"

Nijholt, Willemke; Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing); Scafoglieri, Aldo; Hobbelen, Hans (Ageing And Allied Health Care); van der Schans, Cees

The performance of neural electrodes in physiological fluid, especially in chronic use, is critical for the success of functional electrical stimulation devices. Tips of the Utah electrode arrays (UEAs) were coated with sputtered iridium oxide film (SIROF) and activated iridium oxide film (AIROF) to …

Validity and reliability of the mixing ability test as masticatory performance outcome in children with spastic cerebral palsy and children with typical development: A pilot study.

Lianne Remijn; J.A. Vermaire; M.W.G. Nijhui s-van de Sanden; B.E. Groen; C.M. Speksnijder

BACKGROUND: The mixing ability test (MAT) as an outcome measure of masticatory performance is largely used in studies with adults, but not yet with children. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to test the construct validity and the test-retest reliability of the MAT in children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) …

Agreement between rectus femoris muscle thickness by ultrasound and skeletal muscle mass by bio-electrical impedance analysis: a pilot study

Nijholt, Willemke; Sealy, Martine (Healthy Ageing, Allied Health Care And Nursing); van der Schans, Cees; Hobbelen, Hans (Ageing And Allied Health Care); Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing); Rodenburg, Iris

Rationale: Sarcopenia is a major problem and is common in community-dwelling elderly. In daily practice, there is need for low cost and easily assessable measurement tools to assess depletion of skeletal muscle (SM) mass, for example as one of the indicators of sarcopenia. Bio-electrical impedance analysis …

Intra- and inter-rater reliability of biceps thickness assessment by ultrasound in elderly

Pinho, João Pedro; Azevedo, Rita; Rocha, Paula; Silveira, Joana; Nijholt, Willemke; Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing)

Rationale: Although ultrasound has been reported as valid and reliable tool to assess muscle size in older adults1, little is known about intra-rater reliability (intra-RR) and inter-rater reliability (inter-RR) of BodyMetrix in specific to assess small muscles. Therefore, in this study we aimed to assess …

The reliability and validity of ultrasound to quantify muscles in older adults

Nijholt, Willemke; Scafoglieri, Aldo; Jager-Wittenaar, Harriët (Malnutrition And Healthy Ageing); Hobbelen, Hans (Ageing And Allied Health Care); van der Schans, Cees P

This review evaluates the reliability and validity of ultrasound to quantify muscles in older adults. The databases PubMed, Cochrane, and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature were systematically searched for studies. In 17 studies, the reliability (n = 13) and validity (n = 8) of …

Inter-rater reliability analysis of the diaphragm thickness with musculoskeletal ultrasound imaging, during the breathing cycle

Emilie Vallance (Student); Marc Schmitz (Begeleider)

The use of musculoskeletal Ultrasound (MSU) has been increasing amongst physiotherapist. The efficacy of MSU as a biofeedback training tool diaphragm muscle has not yet been evaluated even though it is a muscle known to be vital in contributing to spinal stability. Before assessing the effectiveness …

Correlation between ultrasound normal values of the masticatory muscle masseter and maximal bite force in a healthy a adult population

Margot Gabriele Falcone (Student); Marc Schmitz (Begeleider)

Poor mastication has been widely associated with cognitive impairments in elderly people. Ultrasound technology (US) and bite force measuring devices are both used to assess the masticatory muscles, providing an indication of their condition. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess masseter …
