Functional Anatomy of the Anconeus: Muscle Architecture and Motor Unit Number Estimation
… muscle architecture in vivo and estimating the number of MUs in the human anconeus muscle have important implications related to the neuromuscular function of this muscle as a model for study in health and disease. The two studies presented in this thesis investigate the functional anatomy of …

Evaluation of Global Muscle Innervation Using Multi-Channel Surface Electromyography
… of neuromuscular function at the muscle and motor unit level. Specifically, sEMG has been used to assess the location of innervation zones (IZs) and the quantity of functioning innervation of targeted muscles. This knowledge associated with muscle innervation is critical to the clinical …

Decreased Peak Muscle Power is Associated with Motor Unit Loss in the Lower Limb of Older Adults
This study investigated the relationship between motor unit (MU) properties and the strength and power of two lower limb muscles in healthy young and old adults. Twelve older adults (mean age, 77 ± 5 yrs) and twelve young adults (mean age, 24 ± 3 yrs) were studied. MU properties of the tibialis …
