Overview
Other diagnostic studies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy include genetic testing, muscle biopsy, Electromyography.
Other Diagnostic Studies
Other diagnostic studies for Duchenne muscular dystrophy include:[1][2][3]
- Genetic testing, which demonstrates:
- Different mutations such as deletion, duplication, etc.
- Muscle biopsy, which demonstrates:
- Replacement of muscle by fat and connective tissue
- Muscle degeneration
- Muscle regeneration
- Opaque hypertrophic fibers
- Electromyography , which demonstrates:
- Polyphasic potentials indicating myopathic changes.
