Summary

This study aims to improve how doctors observe nerves and muscles using ultrasound, a safe imaging technique. Researchers will collect normal measurements from healthy adults and compare them to people with neuromuscular disorders like muscular dystrophy or peripheral neuropathy. Participants will have up to 5 clinic visits for ultrasounds and possibly nerve conduction tests. No treatment is involved; the goal is to gather information to help future research.
