Hardback, published 21 June 2016

592 pages
24.4 x 16 x 3.3 cm, 1.093 kg

Reflects on developments in noninvasive electromyography, and includes advances and applications in signal detection, processing and interpretation

  • Addresses EMG imaging technology together with the issue of decomposition of surface EMG
  • Includes advanced single and multi-channel techniques for information extraction from surface EMG signals
  • Presents the analysis and information extraction of surface EMG at various scales, from motor units to the concept of muscle synergies.
