Summary:[...]it is important to determine whether the hindrance of motor unit (MU) recruitment in the QF existed bilaterally for the accurate evaluation of muscle weakness. To identify the muscle torque per unit volume (MTPUV), the peak torque of isokinetic performance was divided by muscle volume of the QF measured by a series of cross-sectional images obtained by MRI scans.
