Effectiveness of radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy in post-stroke spasticity patients: Evaluation with shear wave elastography

Our study highlights the short-term efficacy of ESWT as an adjunct to conventional rehabilitation in reducing spasticity in post-stroke patients with biceps muscle involvement. The correlation of SWE with physical examination methods emphasizes its potential role in the assessment and follow-up of spasticity treatment.
