Temperature and muscle ultrasound study
This study looks at how temperature affects muscle tissue images on ultrasound. If you are a healthy adult, you may be able to join and help researchers learn more about muscle changes during a common treatment called dry needling.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 65 years old.
- You must be generally healthy with no known nerve, heart, blood vessel, metabolic, or bone problems.
- You cannot have metal implants in the area being treated.
- You cannot have a pacemaker.
- You must avoid any exercise or physical activity for 48 hours before the study.

This study tests how ultrasound can safely calm down inflammation signals in the body. It may help researchers find better ways to control inflammation without using standard anti-inflammatory medicines.
This trial tests whether a special nerve stimulation guided by ultrasound can improve movement speed in CrossFit practitioners. It may help you perform better and avoid injuries.
This study tests whether a therapeutic ultrasound treatment can help your muscles recover more quickly after they get tired from exercise. You would receive ultrasound on your muscles and we'd measure how well they recover.
This study uses an ultrasound scan to look at muscles and nerves (including the breathing muscle). It may help researchers better understand neuromuscular problems and how well ultrasound can detect them.
This study uses sound waves (ultrasound) to look at your thigh and hand muscles. The goal is to see if ultrasound pictures can predict how strong these muscles are. It will help doctors measure muscle health without difficult tests.
This study uses ultrasound scans to measure muscle mass in people with metabolic conditions like type 2 diabetes and obesity. It may help doctors understand how these conditions affect muscles and could lead to better care.
