[Sonography of the skeletal muscles using high-frequency ultrasound probes].
8 musculi graciles of human cadavers were examined sonographically by means of high-frequency ultrasound probes (10 MHz) to evaluate the echo texture of skeletal muscles. It could be shown that the smallest structures of skeletal muscles that may be differentiated sonographically are the primary bundles. In addition, 100 patients with clinically suspected muscular trauma and 8 patients with neuromuscular diseases were examined via high-frequency ultrasound probes (10 or 7.5 MHz). The typical signs of muscle tears and neuromuscular diseases in relation to normal sonomorphology are discussed. The special value of the method in these indications is emphasised.
