Abstract
A new technique to investigate the motor unit organisation in man is described. By moving an EMG electrode through the motor unit a continuous scan or "electrophysiological cross section" is obtained. Computer processing methods are used for analysis and display. Examples are shown from healthy subjects and from patients with neuromuscular diseases.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
