Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose To enable MRI‐based nongated 3D depiction of forced expiration with both high spatio‐temporal resolution and fidelity of lung dynamics. Methods An undersampled 3D Fermat looped, orthogonally encoded trajectory (FLORET) was optimized for nonsegmented dynamic acquisitions during forced expiration and a corresponding model‐based ...

Quantitative Spatiotemporal Analysis of Ultrasound Images of Fasciculations in ALS
Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Fasciculations are a hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), yet quantitative description of individual events on muscle ultrasound (MUS) is limited. We characterized the spatiotemporal kinematics of individual fasciculations to determine whether they differ between ALS and other neurogenic conditions.

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Quantitative muscle ultrasound (QMUS) is a validated technique for assessing muscle pathology, yet its role in disorders primarily affecting the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) remains unclear. This pilot study aimed to explore whether QMUS is associated with structural muscle changes in patients with acquired or genetic NMJ ...
