INTRA AND INTER-RATER RELIABILITY OF ULTRASONOGRAPHIC EVALUATION OF LONGUS COLLI MUSCLE IN WOMEN WITH MIGRAINE

Abstract Objective: To determine intra and inter-rater reliability of ultrasonographic measures of the longus colli muscle in women with and without migraine. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study involving 20 women aged between 20 and 24 years (22 ± 2). Two ultrasonographic assessments, conducted one week apart by two blind examiners, were made of the crosssectional area (cm2) of the longus colli muscle, at rest and in contraction. Statistical analysis used the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and limits of agreement. Results: Intra-rater reliability in the group with migraine, at rest and in contraction, was excellent on the right and
