Sonographic landmarks in hamstring muscles [PDF]
Skeletal Radiology, 2019 The ultrasound examination of hamstrings inspires respect due to the connective complexity of their structures, particularly for sonographers who are not used to this kind of study. Therefore, it is important to know the specific ultrasound reference points that facilitate the location of the hamstring structures, dividing them into four areas of ...

Discriminative sEMG-based features to assess damping ability and interpret activation patterns in lower-limb muscles of ACLR athletes [PDF]
Biomedical Signal Processing and Control, 2023, 83, pp.104665, 2023 Objective: The main goal of the athletes who undergo anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) surgery is a successful return-to-sport. At this stage, identifying muscular deficits becomes important. Hence, in this study, three discriminative features based on surface electromyographic signals (sEMG) acquired in a dynamic protocol are introduced

Hamstring Muscles: Architecture and Innervation [PDF]
Cells Tissues Organs, 2005 Knowledge of the anatomical organization of the hamstring muscles is necessary to understand their functions, and to assist in the development of accurate clinical and biomechanical models. The hamstring muscles were examined by dissection in six embalmed human lower limbs with the purpose of clarifying their gross morphology.

Estimates of Stress Between the Hamstring Muscles [PDF]
Muscle Ligaments and Tendons Journal, 2020 © 2020, CIC Edizioni Internazionali s.r.l.. All rights reserved. Background. The cause of muscle damage and injury is often attributed to large strains. Studies have suggested that strain is the principal cause of muscle damage rather than force. Results. In this paper we show that force is the principal cause of muscle damage whereas strain is a means

Bulletin of Faculty of Physical Therapy, 2021 Background Hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP) enormously affects the quadriceps and hamstring muscles. It causes weakness in the affected lower-extremity muscles in addition to muscle imbalance and inadequate power production, especially in the ankle plantar-
