Objective Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disease
that leads to inexorable motor decline and a median survival of three years from symptom …

Background Electromyography (EMG) is a classical technique used to record electrical
activity associated with muscle contraction and is widely applied in Biomechanics …

A surface electromyography (EMG) analysis was performed in this study to examine central
neural and peripheral muscle changes after a spinal cord injury (SCI). A linear electrode …

Objectives Fasciculations are a clinical hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Compared to concentric needle EMG, high-density surface EMG (HDSEMG) is non-invasive …

This chapter discusses comprehensive neurophysiological biomarkers utilised in motor
neuron disease (MND) and, in particular, its commonest form, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis …

This study examines the innervation zone (IZ) in the biceps brachii muscle in healthy
subjects and those with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using a 20-channel linear …

Bipolar electrode configuration is most commonly used in surface electromyography (EMG)
recording because a differential amplifier can eliminate any “common mode” components …

Abstract Background Fasciculation potentials (FPs) are important in supporting the
electrodiagnosis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). If classified by shape, FPs can also …

After stroke, paretic arm muscles are constantly exposed to abnormal neural drive from the
injured brain. As such, hypertonia, broadly defined as an increase in muscle tone, is …

Background High density surface electromyogram (EMG) techniques with electrode arrays
have been used to record spontaneous muscle activity, which is important, both for …
