摘要:
Provided is a non-invasive system and method for determining a fuel 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 fuel value within the target muscle recording the determined fuel value for the muscle as an element of a data set for the muscle evaluating the fuel 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. Based on these findings the muscles estimated fuel level, fuel rating and energy status may be determined. An associated system is also disclosed.
