Of course, there are abnormalities seen in the atrophied muscles, but the overall picture, as others have noted, does not say ALS.
FYI, monomelic amyotrophy is in fact a neurologic, not myopathic process. It is a motor neuron disease as ALS is, but not nearly as widespread or progressive. But there are numerous relatively benign motor neuropathies (as compared with ALS).
