P31-NMR studies of muscle in patients with venous insufficiency.
Increased interest in venous insufficiency has generated investigators to look for new insights to the pathophysiology of this disease. Previous clinical experience has revealed a relationship between venous hypertension and muscle atrophy in this group of patients. Phosphorous nuclear magnetic resonance studies has been done on a group of venous insufficiency patients to discover the biochemical changes.
