Composition of the rat psoas major muscle

2015
Introduction. Rat psoas major muscle arises from lumbar vertebrae and inserts at the lesser trochanter of the femur. Unlike humans, the rat is a quadruped, and only occasionally rises on its hind legs. Therefore, composition of the rat psoas major muscle is expected to differ in relation to humans. Material and methods.

BLADE TENDERIZATION OF BEEF PSOAS MAJOR AND SEMITENDINOSUS MUSCLES

Journal of Food Science, 1977
ABSTRACT Muscles from 20 U.S. Good carcasses were passed through a blade tenderizer one (IX), two (2X) or three (3X) times to determine effects on cooking and palatability characteristics. Psoas major (OX, IX) and semitendinosus (OX, IX, 2X, 3X) muscles were studied. Blade tenderization had little or no effect on thawing loss, cooking

Previously Unreported Variation in the Innervation of the Psoas Major Muscle

Anatomy & Physiology, 2017
Injury to the nerves of the lumbar plexus can result in significant disability. Therefore, the clinician should be knowledgeable of both the normal and variant anatomy of these branches. We report what we believe to be the first description of the accessory obturator nerve providing a branch to the psoas major muscle.

An aberrant psoas major muscle fascicle.

Anatomischer Anzeiger, 1986
An aberrant psoas major muscle fascicle is described in a human male cadaver. It arose by a tendinous arch spanning the body of L4 and the transverse process of L5, ran an independent course along the pelvic brim to blend with psoas major fibers proximal to the inguinal ligament.

Innervation Patterns of the Psoas Major and Iliacus Muscles in Fetal Cadavers.

Turkish neurosurgery, 2022
To investigate in detail the innervation patterns of the psoas major and iliacus muscles in fetal cadavers.The innervation patterns of 94 psoas major and 94 iliacus muscles belonging to 47 fetuses (28 males, 19 females) aged between the 18th-40th gestational weeks in the laboratory of the Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine were examined.

The Effects of Psoas Major and Lumbar Lordosis on Hip Flexion and Sprint Performance

Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2012
In this study, we analyzed the correlations between hip flexion power; sprint performance, lumbar lordosis (LL) and the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the psoas muscle (PM). Ten young adults performed two sprint tests and isokinetic tests to determine hip flexion power. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to determine LL and PM CSA.

An anatomic approach to tumors of the psoas major muscle.

Surgery, 1987
The technique of excision of the entire psoas major muscle via the retroperitoneal route is described. This approach prevents direct seeding of the peritoneal cavity with tumor cells and provides relatively easy access to the entire psoas major muscle and its blood supply. The anatomic characteristics of the retroperitoneal space preclude wide surgical

Automated recognition of the psoas major muscles on X-ray CT images

2009 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2009
The purpose of this study is to recognize the psoas major muscle on X-ray CT images. For this purpose, we propose a novel recognition method. The recognition process in this method involves three steps: the generation of a shape model for the psoas major muscle, recognition of anatomical points such as the origin and insertion, and the recognition of ...

Psoas Major Muscle Segmentation Using Higher-Order Shape Prior

2016
We propose a novel segmentation method based on higher-order graph cuts which enables the utilization of prior knowledge regarding anatomical shapes. We applied the method for segmentation of psoas major muscles by using combinations of logistic curves which representing their shapes.
