Approved February 9, 2012 Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) Imaging Study Kathryn Wagner, M.D., Ph.D., Principal Investigator The Kennedy Krieger Institute is recruiting volunteers with FSHD and healthy volunteers without FSHD for a clinical research study. Volunteers with FSHD will be asked to undergo muscle strength testing and non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS) of the muscles. Volunteers without FSHD will also be asked to undergo genetic testing for FSHD. Although there are no direct benefits to volunteers who participate in this study, the information collected from the study will be used to develop disease biomarkers for FSHD. Interested individuals should contact Doris Leung, MD at 443-923-9521 or e-mail: [email protected]. Kennedy Krieger Institute, Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions Study Protocol Number: NA_00065256
