Characterizing forearm skeletal muscle composition and function in breast cancer-related lymphedema using B-mode ultrasonography

Author(s): Whyte J; Towers A; Boily M; Rosenthall L; Rivaz H; Kilgour RD;

Background: Skeletal muscle thickness, echo intensity, and quality are important morphological properties; however, little is known how these variables compare between the affected and unaffected forearms in breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). Methods: Using B-mode ultrasound, we recorded the raw radiofrequency data of the affected and unaffected fo ...

Thresholding approaches for estimating paraspinal muscle fat infiltration using T1- and T2-weighted MRI: Comparative analysis using water-fat MRI

Author(s): Ornowski J; Dziesinski L; Hess M; Krug R; Fortin M; Torres-Espin A; Majumdar S; Pedoia V; Bonnheim NB; Bailey JF;

Background: Paraspinal muscle fat infiltration is associated with spinal degeneration and low back pain, however, quantifying muscle fat using clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques continues to be a challenge. Advanced MRI techniques, including chemical-shift encoding (CSE) based w ...
