The applicability was tested of real-time ultrasound imaging to the high musculature for the carrier detection of Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). A total of 17 obligate carriers were examined. Ultrasound images in 3 patients, aged between 46 and 59 years, showed moderate differences compared with the controls. In 3 other obligate carriers, aged between 46 and 71 years, only doubtfully abnormal findings could be made; ultrasound images showed no differences in 11 BMD carriers aged between 10 and 47 years. In women aged over 40 years, compared with adequate controls of the same body type, real-time ultrasound imaging may provide additional evidence and thus help in the detection of BMD carriers.
对实时超声成像在检测贝克肌营养不良症（BMD）携带者的高肌张力肌肉组织中的适用性进行了测试。共检查了17名确定携带者。3名年龄在46至59岁之间的患者的超声图像与对照组相比显示出中度差异。在另外3名年龄在46至71岁之间的确定携带者中，仅发现可疑的异常结果；11名年龄在10至47岁之间的BMD携带者的超声图像未显示差异。在40岁以上的女性中，与相同体型的适当对照组相比，实时超声成像可能会提供额外证据，从而有助于检测BMD携带者。
