ABSTRACTObjective To evaluate the skeletal muscle changes in patients with chronic low back pain by twodimensionalultrasoundandshear waveelastography(SWE),andtoexploretheclinicalvalue.MethodsTotally65patients with chronic back painadmited toour hospital(observation group)and 65 healthysubjects who underwent physical examinations duringthesameperiod(healthygroup)wereselected.Thethicknessandcross-sectionalareaofbilateralmultifidus,rector spinaemusclesand the thicknessof transverseabdominis muscle were measuredbytwo-dimensionalultrasound.The average shear wave velocity(SWV)of each muscle were measured bySWE,thediferences inabove parameters between the two groups werecompared.Theconsistencyofinter-observermeasurementsoftwo-dimensionalultrasoundparametersandSWEparameters forvarious muscles were evaluated byintra-class correlationcoeffcient(ICC).ResultsComparedwiththehealthygroup,the thicknessandcross-sectionalareaofbilateral multifidus,rectorspinaemuscle,andthe thicknessof transverseabdominal muscleweredecreasedintheobservationgroup,whiletheSWVofbilateralmultifidus,erectorspinaeandtransverseabdominal muscles were increased,the differenceswere statistically significant(all P <0.05).The consistency analysis showed good agreement of inter-bserver measurementsof thethickness,ross-sectionalarea,andSWVof themultifidusmuscle(ICCformultifidus thickness was 0.928,ICC for multifidus cross-sectionalarea was0.919,ICC for multifidusSWVwas 0.903,all P <0.001)and the erectorspinae muscle(ICCforerectorspinaethicknesswas0.906,ICCforerectorspinaecross-sectionalarea was0.89,ICCfor erector spinae SWV was 0.925,all P<0.001 ). The agreement in measuring the thickness and SWV of the transversus abdominis muscle was excellent(ICC=0.954,0.964,both P<0.001 ).ConclusionTwo-dimensional ultrasound and SWE can accurately evaluate the skeletal musclechanges in patients with chronic low back pain,which have acertain clinical value.
