    Sarcopenia: Diagnosis and Management, State of the Art and Contribution of Ultrasound

    by Silvia Giovannini, Fabrizio Brau, Raffaele Forino, Andrea Berti, Federica D’ignazio, Claudia Loreti, Andrea Bellieni, Emanuela D’angelo, Francesca Di Caro, Lorenzo Biscotti, et al.

    Age-related muscle loss is a phenomenon that has been extensively studied in recent decades. Sarcopenia is a multisystem disease, which predisposes to muscle weakness and frailty. At around 50 years of age, an individual begins to lose muscle strength, although this becomes more evident after 70. Sarcopenia is a condition typically found in older adults but can also affect younger people. Sarcopenia is a preventable and treatable condition. In past years, methods and tools to recognize the condition early have been researched. For the development of therapeutic interventions, agreement on diagnosis is fundamental. In recent years, a possible role of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of sarcopenia has been evaluated, compared with the best-known techniques.
