Figure 3 Use of ultrasonic shear wave elastography (SWE) measurement of piriformis muscle(A) In control group, a female, 55 years old, the Young’s modulus value of the left piriformis muscle was 8.59±4.16 kPa. (B) In observation group patient, a female, 53 years old, the Young’s modulus of the left piriformis muscle was 18.77±8.85 kPa.
