Abstract
Computed tomography (CT) scans of skeletal muscles of 3 patients with pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy are presented. Different patterns of muscle alterations and particualrly of pseudohypertrophy are described. The significance of the radiological findings for clinical examination, electromyography, and needle biopsy is discussed.Keywords
