Inter-pulse intervals of external anal sphincter surface EMG signals recorded from colorectal cancer patients [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Intervals between electrical pulses generated by the electrical activity produced by the motor units of an external anal sphincter were studied at four time intervals during multimodal rectal cancer treatment. Probability distribution function of such intervals does not exhibit significant differences for all considered time intervals. It is found that
