Surface wave elastography is a reliable method to correlate muscle elasticity, torque, and electromyography activity level. [PDF]

Physiol Rep, 2021
This work describes the non‐ultrasound surface wave elastography (NU‐SWE) as a novel tool for muscle biomechanics research. The method is low‐cost, portable, and can provide an accurate estimate of the bulk elasticity of skeletal muscle in real‐time. To test the performance of the NU‐SWE, we performed two experiments to assess the relationship between ...
