Overview
Lower limb MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Findings on MRI suggestive of Duchenne muscular dystrophy include high T1-weighted signal in affected muscles.
MRI
Lower limb MRI may be helpful in the diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Findings on MRI suggestive of Duchenne muscular dystrophy include:[1]
- High T1-weighted signal in affected muscles such as:
