Reliability of pelvic floor muscle electromyography tested on healthy women and women with pelvic floor muscle dysfunction

Annals of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine, 2017
Electromyography (EMG) is a well-established method to quantify the relative pelvic floor muscle (PFM) activity. PFM EMG has shown good reliability in healthy women. However, its reliability has not been tested in women with PFM dysfunction. The reliability of EMG analysis methods concerning EMG normalization needs to be determined to assess specific ...

Artificial Intelligence to Determine Correct Midsagittal Plane in Dynamic Transperineal Ultrasound

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
We have created a model that allows determining the correct midsagittal plane captured by transperineal dynamic ultrasound, with a level of agreement with the expert examiner similar to or higher than that of a junior or senior examiner. ABSTRACT Purpose To create and validate a machine learning(ML) model that allows for identifying the correct capture
