Ultrasound may reveal hidden muscle strength
NCT ID NCT07647393
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This observational study will examine whether ultrasound images of muscles can predict strength in 300 healthy adults aged 18 to 89. Participants will have ultrasound scans of their thigh and forearm muscles, plus strength tests and questionnaires. The goal is to find simple, non-invasive ways to assess muscle health.
