Figure 2 Measurement of the piriformis muscle thickness from 3 sites. Thickest parts of the piriformis muscle over the ilium, on the lateral side of the ilium near greater trochanter, and on the medial side of the ilium near the sacrum were measured. GM – gluteus maximus muscle; PM – piriformis muscle; IB – iliac bone; SS – sacral side; FS – femoral side; circle – sciatic nerve.
