Abstract
Background: Ultrasonography is a preferred tool to measure length or thickness of a muscle or tendon in clinical practice or research. It is difficult, however, to obtain a wide view of a structure because of the limitation of the width of the ultrasound transducer. Currently, the panoramic imaging technique, through blending multiple images together to form a wide image, allows a direct measure along the whole muscle. The reliability of such a panoramic measurement of muscle length must be determined before it is clinically and scientifically useful.
