Scientists map muscle loss to build better braces for rare disease

NCT ID NCT07164937

Summary

This study aims to better understand how a genetic muscle-wasting disease, FSHD, affects movement and posture. Researchers will use MRI scans and 3D motion capture to analyze muscle damage and walking patterns in 40 adult patients. The goal is to link these detailed pictures of muscle health with how well people can move, to help design more effective orthopedic supports and guide future treatment research.
