Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: Forward head posture (FHP) is a common abnormal posture in neck disorders. FHP causes an alteration of the strength in the cervical muscles. Since both muscle quantity and quality impress the muscle strength, this study aimed to compare the echo intensity of cervical muscles (index of muscle quality) between women with and without FHP. Method: Echo intensity of cervical muscles was measured by Adobe Photoshop software and compared between two groups. Results: The findings of the current study indicate the insignificant difference between two groups regarding the echo intensity of cervical muscles. Conclusion: Evaluation of echo intensity of cervical muscles may expand knowledge about the muscle quality and function.
