Ultrasound use in metastatic breast cancer to measure body composition changes following an exercise intervention

Abstract Changes in body composition and muscle dysfunction are common in metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Ultrasound imaging (US) offers reliable information about muscle and fat tissue architecture (thickness) and quality (echo-intensity). This study aimed to analyze the responsiveness of thickness...
