ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
We aimed to verify the reliability of muscle thickness and luminance evaluation of the deep leg muscles using an ultrasound device.DESIGN:
Cohort study.SETTING:
Track and field,Participants:
high school track and field long distance athletes (N = 10, female 50.0%, age = 16.0 ± 2.8 years, BMI = 18.2 ± 2.3 kg/m2)PARTICIPANTS:
This study included Japanese high school track and long-distance field athletes. MAIN OUTCOMEMEASURES:
The thickness and echo intensity of tibialis posterior, flexor digitorum longus, and soleus muscles in the posterior medial tibia were clarified.RESULTS:
The echo intensity evaluation of the tibialis posterior muscle showed an additive error.CONCLUSION:
The study suggested that the results could be clinically applied clinically, except for the evaluation of echo intensity of the posterior tibialis muscle.Palavras-chave
