Spatial localization of electromyographic amplitude distributions associated to the activation of dorsal forearm muscles

In this study we investigated whether the spatial distribution of surface electromyographic (EMG) amplitude can be used to describe the activation of muscle portions with different biomechanical actions. Ten healthy subjects performed isometric contractions aimed to selectively activate a number of...
