Innervation Zones of Fasciculating Motor Units: Observations by a Linear Electrode Array

Innervation Zones of Fasciculating Motor Units: Observations by a Linear Electrode Array

This study examines the innervation zone (IZ) in the biceps brachii muscle in normal subjects and those with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using a 20-channel linear electromyogram (EMG) electrode array. Raster plots of individual waveform potentials were studied to estimate the motor unit IZ....
