Appropriate measurement of maximal voluntary contraction force of a single limb muscle or of a muscle group is important in clinical and research situations. To measure muscle force, one segment of an isometric measuring brace is fixed to a support and force is applied to the other. The output of th
This study was designed to compare electromyogram (EMG) and acoustic myogram (AMG) recordings of biceps brachii muscles in patients with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). The maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) in the CP group was approximately one half of that of the normal group even after being normal
During the superficial dissection of the pectoral region and the arm, an abnormal biceps brachii muscle was observed unilaterally. This muscle had three heads. Whereas the short and long heads had their normal origin, the accessory head originated from the anterior surface of the distal part of the
