Abstract:
Senile sarcopenia is an age-related geriatric syndrome characterized by a progressive decline in muscle mass, strength, and physical function, posing a significant threat to the health and quality of life of the elderly.In recent years, ultrasound technology has emerged as an important research tool in the evaluation of sarcopenia, owing to its advantages such as safety, convenience, and radiation-free nature.However, challenges remain in achieving parameter standardization, operational consistency, and clinical implementation.This review comprehensively summarizes recent domestic and international research advances in the application of multiparametric ultrasound technology for the diagnosis and evaluation of sarcopenia in the elderly.It also analyzes the practicality, advancements, and limitations of this technology while providing insights into future development trends, aiming to provide clinical research reference basis for the precise diagnosis and intervention strategies of sarcopenia.
