Trochanteric soft tissue thickness measured across body positions and imaging modalities

1. Ultrasound-measured trochanteric soft tissue thickness is associated with trochanteric soft tissue thickness measured across body positions and imaging modalities in humans (r2 = 0.589–0.927; all p < 0.01).
