Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential importance of tissue elasticity in the assessment of soft tissues including muscles, tendons and ligaments and other soft tissue structures.

The evaluation of tissue elasticity (easily stretched or moveable) may assist in assessment of various soft tissue structures, such as fatty atrophy of muscles, tendon/ligamentous injury and healing and other soft tissue structures.
