Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Primary study outcomes are the BOLD-signal specific outcomes. These parameters<br /><br>give an indication of the reserve and recovery capacity of the blood supply to<br /><br>the gluteal muscles. Furthermore, the presence or absence of buttock<br /><br>claudication will be monitored to correlate the BOLD-signal parameters with and<br /><br>to determine the predictive value of the technique.</p><br>
