Intramuscular electrical stimulation in human muscles
Intramuscular electrical stimulation is a technique that is rarely used for neuromechanical research on skeletal muscle contraction, although it offers many advantages. In this project we investigate the use of electrical stimulation through indwelling electrodes in the calf muscle of healthy humans together with B-mode ultrasound imaging to investigate the connectivity between neighbouring muscles.
