Imaging recruitment of motor units in voluntary skeletal muscle contractions using decomposition and ultrafast ultrasound imaging : A pilot study

• Recently our research group demonstrated a method to separate and identify the mechanical response of individual active MUs, from a large part of a muscle (4x4 cm, cross-sectional) under voluntary contractions. The method is based on ultrafast ultrasound imaging and spatiotemporal decomposition. In the present work we aimed to use this method to explore MU territory recruitment patterns at low force levels in the biceps brachii.
