✦ Synopsis

We describe clinical, pathological, and muscle imaging findings in a patient with an early adult-onset progressive muscular weakness in association with atrophy beginning in the legs and involving both gastrocnemi in particular.

Muscle biopsy findings showed a severe dystrophic process with no vacuoles, consistent with Miyoshi's myopathy. Computerized tomography and magnetic resonance imaging scans were used to provide an ongoing permanent record of the various stages of the disease.

## Abstract Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a disease that causes high morbidity and mortality in the population. At present the first‐line imaging test for a suspected pulmonary embolism (PE) is computed tomography (CT) pulmonary angiography, and ultrasonography is widely used for the diagnosis of
