UltraTimTrack: a Kalman-filter-based algorithm to track muscle fascicles in ultrasound image sequences [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ Computer Science
Background Brightness-mode (B-mode) ultrasound is a valuable tool to non-invasively image skeletal muscle architectural changes during movement, but automatically tracking muscle fascicles remains a major challenge.

Three‐dimensional digital analysis of musteloid masticatory muscle architecture

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Musteloids span an enormous breadth of dietary modes within a single superfamily. In this study, we utilize digital dissection techniques to reconstruct the internal 3D anatomy of muscles within the musteloid feeding apparatus, and explore how dietary specializations might alter the size, orientation, and curvature of fascicles therein.

Generated fascicle trajectories in 3D anatomical examples of skeletal muscles.

open access: yes, 2013
In each muscle, the origin (proximal) and insertion (distal) attachment regions are shown in green and blue respectively. For sake of visibility, only samplings of fascicle tracts on the muscle surface are shown.

Balancing mechanics and metabolism: Elevational variation in the microanatomy of hummingbird flight muscle

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Factors varying along elevational gradients impose strong aerodynamic and physiological constraints on powered flight, yet the internal microanatomical variation associated with elevational context in animals under such conditions remains poorly understood.

Emily Dickinson as Conscious Editor of Fascicle 7 (Special Issue Dedicated to Professor OKADA, Akiko) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Following Fascicle 5 (summer) and Fascicle 6 (autumn), Fascicle 7 is in winter. These fascicles are apparently following the cycle of seasons. Ten poems in this fascicle deal with the passing of time from night to morning.

Decoupling of muscle‐tendon unit and fascicle velocity contributes to the in vivo stretch‐shortening cycle effect in the male human triceps surae muscle

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
During the shortening of stretch‐shortening cycles (SSCs), muscle force output is enhanced compared with pure shortening (SHO), referred to as the SSC‐effect.

Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.

Pre-activation affects the effect of stretch-shortening cycle by modulating fascicle behavior

open access: yesBiology Open, 2019
The torque attained during active shortening is enhanced after an active stretch (stretch-shortening cycle, SSC). This study examined the influence of pre-activation on fascicle behavior and the SSC effect.

Fascicle measurement methods do result in lengths that are significantly different

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
A recent comparison of the most prevalent methods for measuring fascicles, in situ measurement versus chemical digestion, concluded that the measurements are indistinguishable based on data from different conspecific individuals. However, our study of contralateral muscles of the same individuals shows that the methods clearly result in statistically ...
