Official Title: Contractile Cross Sectional Areas and Muscle Strength in Patients With Inherited Muscle Diseases as Compared to Healthy Individuals

Brief Summary: Patients with inherited muscle diseases can have several problems in their muscles, which can be both structural and metabolic. All the different diseases can affect the contractility of the muscles. The aim of the study is to investigate the relation between muscle strength and contractile cross sectional area (CCSA) in the thigh and calf in patients affected by inherited muscle diseases.
