Magnetic-resonance-imaging-based three-dimensional muscle reconstruction of hip abductor muscle volume in a person with a transfemoral bone-anchored prosthesis: A feasibility study.

CONCLUSION: The presented technique appears feasible to follow muscle volume changes over time in a person with a cobalt-chrome-molybdenum transfemoral bone-anchored prosthesis in an experimental setting. Future research should focus on analysis of muscle tissue composition and the feasibility in bone-anchored prostheses of other alloys. PMID: 29589767 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
