Study Summary
This study is to create a test that can accurately find and measure the problem areas in muscle and fascia tissue, also known as myofascial pain. The hypothesis is that a combination of imaging findings will be able to detect when myofascial pain is present. The goal is to improve management of myofascial pain by making better tools to find changes in the muscle and fascia tissues for a more personalized treatment. This project was funded by the HEAL initiative (https://heal.nih.gov/).
Primary Outcome
Travell and Simons' criteria will be used to identify active muscle trigger points (TrPs) as present or absent. The score will be "Yes" for present and "No" for absent.
