Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2023 Background: An alteration in the force distribution among quadriceps heads is one possible underlying mechanism of patellofemoral pain. However, this hypothesis cannot be directly tested as there are currently no noninvasive experimental techniques to measure individual muscle force or torque in vivo in humans.

Fatigue and the Electromechanical Efficiency of the Vastus Medialis and Vastus Lateralis Muscles [PDF]
Journal of Athletic Training, 2008 AbstractContext:The relationship between the amplitudes of the mechanomyographic (MMG) and electromyographic (EMG) signals has been used to examine the “electromechanical efficiency” (EME) of normal and diseased muscle. The EME may help us to better understand the neuromuscular relationship between the vastus medialis and vastus lateralis muscles ...

The role of the quadriceps muscle in knee extension
South African Journal of Physiotherapy, 1983 In 1949, Smillie proposed that the vastus medialis muscle alone is responsible for the final 10° to 15° of knee extension. A number of more recent studies have proved that the whole quadriceps muscle is responsible for all degrees of knee extension. This
