Brief Summary: This study aims

1 To examine the reliability of SWE assessment in the shoulder muscles of persons after a stroke
2 To assess if differentiation can be made between the hemiplegic HP and non-hemiplegic NHP side and between stroke patients and matched healthy volunteers discriminative validity
3 To assess if an immediate effect on the pectoralis major and minor can be measured after applying transversal stretch technique to the pectoralis major muscles response validity
Detailed Description: Stroke patients will be assessed on 2 days with an interval of 3 days Friday - Monday

Day 1 Friday shear wave velocity SWV will be assessed by 2 assessors in randomised order Each assessor will evaluate SWV of 6 shoulder muscles m supraspinatus m infraspinatus m rhomboid major m deltoideus m pectoralis major m pectoralis minor

At the end of the assessment secondary outcome measures will be assessed

Day 2 Monday SWV will be reassessed by assessor 1 to measure test-retest reliability

Position of the patient will be changed SWV of the pectoralis major and minor muscle will be reassessed

Assessor 2 will perform a transversal stretch of the m pectoralis major or a passive mobilisation of the hand at the hemiplegic arm of the stroke patients Assessor 1 will reassess the SWV of the pectoralis major and minor muscle to assess if there is an immediate effect of the intervention Assessor 1 will be blinded for the intervention

Healthy controls matched for age gender and BMI

Only one test day to assess SWV of 6 shoulder muscles Secondary outcome measures will be assessed after SWE assessment
