Springbok provides muscle volume metrics at the individual muscle and group level. These measurements are compared against sex-specific or combined normative data to identify larger or smaller muscles than expected.
When asymmetry between the musculature on the right and left side of the body goes beyond a certain threshold, the ability to move efficiently can decline. Springbok measures precise interlimb imbalances and provides easy color mapping to denote the level of muscle asymmetry compared to its expected bounds.
Fat replacement of healthy muscle tissue is associated with poor health and loss of muscle function. Fat replacement can increase with physical inactivity, injury, and aging, impacting long-term health. Springbok precisely quantifies the amount of fat inside the muscle to enable objective tracking over time for early detection and improved longevity.
Precision tracking of changes in muscle structure over time can provide insights into progression mechanisms for injury and disease conditions. Springbok’s CSA muscle analysis details muscle volume and fat infiltration along the muscle length, providing in-depth data on muscle composition.
Scar tissue and edema can impair joint movement, reduce muscle strength, and inhibit exercise ability. Springbok’s technology identifies and measures scar tissue, intramuscular, and extramuscular edema to help with injury management, recovery, and return-to-activity decisions.
Springbok provides muscle volume metrics at the individual muscle and group-level. These measurements are compared against normative data to identify muscles that are larger or smaller than expected.
Infiltration of fat and atrophy of skeletal muscle tissue is associated with poor health. Muscle atrophy can increase with physical inactivity, injury and aging, impacting long-term health. Springbok quantifies the fat within the muscle and enables objective tracking over time to improve longevity.
Studies have shown that how muscles within a unit relate to each other is important for optimal function. Springbok quantifies the relative weighting of each muscle to the unit as a whole, providing better understanding of shoulder development patterns.
Springbok provides muscle volume metrics at the individual muscle and group level. These measurements are compared against sex-specific or combined normative data to identify larger or smaller muscles than expected.
Asymmetry percentages between the left and right sides are calculated for each muscle and functional muscle group. The degree of imbalance is denoted on the 3D model based on how far each muscle is from its expected bounds.
Fat replacement of healthy muscle tissue is a characteristic feature of muscle-wasting conditions associated with loss of muscle function and health. Springbok precisely measures the amount of fat infiltration within the muscle and can provide pixel-by-pixel analyses to detect muscle composition changes over time.

We provide detailed analysis of muscles in specific regions, as well as the full body. We visualize and quantify skeletal structures like bones and tendons to drive a better understanding of their relationship with surrounding muscles.
Precise, repeatable detection of muscle change over time by measuring raw muscle volume, identifying muscle imbalance and development levels, quantifying fat infiltration volume and fat fraction, and pixel by pixel fat distribution.
Opportunity to distribute patient facing reports through an interactive viewer and static report. Convenient and objective analysis for patients, increased information for care teams, and access to interactive muscle models with key findings.
Understanding of muscle-related disease progression and identification of population-specific phenotypes by creating specialized databases and pairing imaging data with functional information to reveal structure and function relationships.
Flexible protocols that work with any make and model of MR scanner. Adaptable to clinical workflows, and retrospective imaging analysis capabilities to enhance the value and data from existing scans.
We are proud early supporters of Springbok and have seen firsthand how their technology will fundamentally change and improve how muscle health is understood and optimized.
