Using MRI in Patients With Non-dystrophic Myotonia to Access Muscle Contractility

NCT04808388 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 25

Last updated 2021-09-16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this project is (1) to investigate whether or not structural muscle abnormalities could be a consequence of the disorder and (2) to provide further clinical description of this rare phenotype. To do so, the investigators will (1) use Dixon MRI to quantify fatty infiltration in muscle tissue and compare it to muscle strength measurements from isometric dynamometry in order to access contractility and (2) describe the myotonic phenotype with simple squeeze test and questionnaires.
