✦ Synopsis

Background. To use sonography (US) to measure the interscapular soft-tissue thickness and to determine any correlation with anthropometric indices.

Methods. Fifty-five healthy young adults (21 men and 34 women) with a mean age of 22.1 6 3.0 years (range, 18-35) were enrolled. High-resolution US was used to measure the bilateral soft-tissue thickness near the medial border of the scapula. Anthropometric indices, including body weight, height, and circumferences of chest, waist, and hip, were also measured.

Results. On the right side, mean values 6 standard deviation for the thickness of the trapezius, rhomboid, and posterior serratus muscles in millimeters were 4.9
