The effect of ageing on shear wave elastography muscle stiffness in adults

BACKGROUND: Skeletal muscle undergoes structural changes with ageing which may alter its biomechanical properties. Shear wave elastography (SWE) may detect these changes by measuring muscle stiffness. AIMS: To investigate muscle stiffness in healthy young, middle-aged and elderly cohorts using SWE a...
