Functional levels and MRI patterns of muscle involvement in upper limbs in Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the spectrum of upper limb functional activities and imaging finding in a cohort of patients affected by Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Thirty-one patients of age between 5 and 29 years were included in the study (17 ambulant and 14 non-ambulant). They were all ass...
