Reference Methods for Measuring Skeletal Muscle Mass: A Critical Perspective

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Skeletal muscle (SM) is an integral organ component in the pathophysiology of many acute and chronic diseases. But is there a ‘gold’ standard or accepted reference method for quantifying the amount and composition of human SM mass? Exploring that question led us to recognize the existence of a SM measurement paradigm that divides methods into ...

Ultrasonographic Analysis of Site‐Specific Plantar Skin Thickness for Melanoma Staging and Excision

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 83-91, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Plantar melanomas present unique diagnostic and surgical challenges owing to substantial regional variations in skin thickness. Although the Breslow thickness remains the primary criterion for staging and surgical excision, its application on plantar melanoma is complicated by the inherent thickness of the glabrous plantar epidermis, which may

Sonographic Patellar and Quadriceps Tendon Length Pre‐ and Post‐Autograft Harvest: Reliability and Concurrent Validity

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Extensor mechanism autografts used for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, namely bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) and quadriceps tendon (QT), may result in harvest‐site tendon elongation. Extended field of view (EFOV) ultrasound imaging has the potential to evaluate changes in tendon length, but the reliability and validity of these ...

Hidden Insights: Comprehensive Radiological Analysis of Four Skeletal Populations From 13th–19th Century Southern Finland Reveals Neoplastic and Other Lesions Invisible on Bone Surfaces

open access: yesInternational Journal of Osteoarchaeology, Volume 36, Issue 1, Page 196-206, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aims to identify lesions confined to the internal structures of bones. A radiographic analysis was performed on 219 archaeological, historical period skeletons from southern Finland. Although the study examines nearly all preserved skeletal elements using plain radiographs, it does not incorporate computed tomography.

Anatomical Mapping of the Masseter for Safe Botulinum Toxin Injection: A Cadaveric Study

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Botulinum toxin (BTX) is commonly used in masseter injections to enhance facial contour. However, the injection may harm the surrounding structure due to insufficient research on the anatomical structure of the masseter region. Objectives This study is aimed at providing anatomical evidence for facial injections in clinical practice by ...

The course of the radial nerve in the distal humerus: A novel, anatomy based, radiographic assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Iatrogenic nerve injury during fracture surgery of the upper arm is a well-known complication. Prevention of this type of injuries would be of great value. The literature describes several methods to reduce this type of injury, but no

Validity and sensitivity of a human cranial finite element model: Implications for comparative studies of biting performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Finite element analysis (FEA) is a modelling technique increasingly used in anatomical studies investigating skeletal form and function. In the case of the cranium this approach has been applied to both living and fossil taxa to (for example) investigate
