Assessing the elastic properties of skeletal muscle and tendon using shearwave ultrasound elastography and MyotonPRO

The purposes of this study were to compare Young’s modulus values determined by shear wave ultrasound elastography (SWUE) with stiffness index obtained using a hand-held MyotonPRO device on the resting stiffness of gastrocnemius muscle belly and Achilles tendon; and to examine the test-retest reliab...
