 note = {pdf, A 23-year-old woman was admitted for slowly progressive proximal limb muscle weakness from childhood with elevated muscle enzyme levels. Although muscular diseases were suspected, an electromyogram showed remarkable neurogenic changes, and a muscle echogram indicated selective muscle involvement, including dissociation between the soleus and gastrocnemius, which was consistent with previous reports using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). She was diagnosed with SMA type 3 following genetic testing, and nusinersen was soon initiated. An early diagnosis is mandatory to maximize the benefit of treatment. A muscle echogram may facilitate an early diagnosis in a non-invasive and time-saving manner compared to MRI., Journal Article},
