Description
Evgeny B Topolnitskiy and co-authors wrote in 2026 about CT checks of breathing muscle thickness. The focus was myasthenia gravis. In this illness, lung muscle weakness drives risk of crisis and lung failure. Objective structural checks of the breathing muscle remain incompletely standardised. This curbs its clinical use.
Through a focused hunt of nerve-muscle imaging work, the review sums up proof on measurement repeatability. It also covers normal values and links between build and function. Possible CT uses in generalised disease are weighed. Studies with clear methods or clinical outcomes were favoured. The synthesis guides clinicians toward repeatable measures. These could flag lung decline sooner in myasthenia gravis.
