Objective Assessment of Regional Stiffness in Vastus Lateralis with Different Measurement Methods: A Reliability Study
The objective of this study was to evaluate the reliability of four methods of assessing vastus lateralis (VL) stiffness, and to describe the influence of structural characteristics on them. The stiffness of the dominant lower-limb’s VL was evaluated in 53 healthy participants (28.4 ± 9.1 years) wit...
