In this follow-up study, the results from our previous study were verified regarding the correlation of qMRI parameters with histopathological features in muscle biopsies, indicating that qMRI serves as a suitable non-invasive method in the follow-up of patients with neuromuscular disorders. If post-biopsy MRI is not available, whole muscle volume can be used for histopathological correlations.
