摘要:
Provided is a non-invasive system and method for determining a target glycogen score value for a target muscle and potentially at least one indicator muscle. The method includes receiving an ultrasound scan of a target muscle evaluating at least a portion of the ultrasound scan to determine glycogen store value within the target muscle recording the determined glycogen store value for the muscle as an element of a glycogen value data set for the muscle evaluating the glycogen value data set to determine a value range and in response to the range being at least above a pre-determined threshold, establishing a target score for the muscle as based on an upper portion of the value range. The method may be repeated to identify ranges for a plurality of muscles, the muscle with the greatest range being identified as an indicator muscle. An associated system is also disclosed.
