Abstract
Provided is a non-invasive system and method for determining a fuel value for a target muscle and potentially at least one indicator muscle. The method includes receiving an ultrasound scan of a target muscle; evaluating at least a portion of the ultrasound scan to determine fuel value within the target muscle; recording the determined fuel value for the muscle as an element of a data set for the muscle; evaluating the fuel data set to determine a value range; and in response to the range being at least above a pre-determined threshold, establishing a target score for the muscle as based on an upper portion of the value range. The method may be repeated to identify ranges for a plurality of muscles, the muscle with the greatest range being identified as an indicator muscle. Based thereon, the muscles estimated fuel level, fuel rating and energy status may be determined.
