Does ultrasound elastography provide a valid estimation of the amount of muscle damage?

The inability of non-invasive techniques to estimate muscle damage limits our understanding of injury occurrence. Shear wave elastography (SWE) technique provides a reliable (Lacourpaille et al. 2012) and accurate (Eby et al. 2013) quantification of individual muscle shear modulus (i.e., stiffne...
