Summary 

									
								

							

						

						
We measured the echo intensity of the three superficial muscles of the quadriceps femoris in 25 healthy adults (10 males and 15 females) using ultrasound. Moreover, we obtained the maximum force during isokinetic knee extension at 60°/s using an isokinetic dynamometer. In males and females, a significant negative correlation between echo intensity and muscle strength was found in the VM.
