We sincerely appreciate Dr Sabour for pointing out that intraclass correlation analysis should have been used to test intra-observer agreement in our article.We have, therefore, reassessed intra-observer agreement in our data using intraclass correlation (Table 1).Intraclass correlation coefficient was determined with the statistical package SPSS Version 24.0 (SPSS, Armonk, NY, USA).The intraclass correlation coefficient between 2 measurements performed by a single observer was 0.92 (P < .001).Based on these results, we suggest that ultrasound strain imaging is feasible for quantifying biceps brachii muscle mechanical properties with good repeatability.We hope this response has improved the original article.
