The purpose of this study was to establish the efficacy of Ultrasound as a tool for measuring the area of longitudinal section of muscle (ALSM) Longitudinal section of upper arm was mesured in this experiment. Accuracy of the measured values of ALSM was assessed on three points of views as follows : 1. To verify a reproducibility of the vaiues that same examiner measured ALSM 10 times by ultrasound. 2. To verify a reproducibility of the values that several examiners measured by ultrasound. 3. To compare the Ultrasonic method with X-Ray method concerning the measured values of ALSM. No significant difference was observed among repeated measurements, and also no significant difference was observed between two measuring methods. These results support the efficacy of this ultrasound as a tool for assessing the area of longitudinal section of muscle.
