© 2017 The Authors Background & aims: Impaired anabolic responses to nutrition and exercise contribute to loss of skeletal muscle mass with ageing (sarcopenia). Here, we tested responses of muscle protein synthesis (MPS), in the under represented gr...

Muscle thickness correlates to muscle cross sectional area in the assessment of strength training induced hypertrophy (2017)
Journal Article
Franchi, M. V., Longo, S., Mallinson, J. E., Quinlan, J. I., Taylor, T., Greenhaff, P. L., & Narici, M. V. (in press). Muscle thickness correlates to muscle cross sectional area in the assessment of strength training induced hypertrophy.

Aim: Muscle thickness (MT) measured by ultrasound has been used to estimate cross-sectional area (measured by CT and MRI) at a single time-point. We tested whether MT could be used as a valid marker of MRI determined muscle anatomical cross-sectional...
