A complete overview of electromyography with contributions from pacesetters in the field
A complete overview of electromyography with contributions from pacesetters in the field
In recent years, insights from the field of engineering have illuminated the vast potential of electromyography (EMG) in biomedical technology. Featuring contributions from key innovators working in the field today, Electromyography reveals the broad applications of EMG data in areas as diverse as neurology, ergonomics, exercise physiology, rehabilitation, movement analysis, biofeedback, and myoelectric control of prosthesis.
Bridging the gap between engineering and physiology, this pioneering volume explains the essential concepts needed to detect, understand, process, and interpret EMG signals using non-invasive electrodes. Electromyography shows how engineering tools ... Read more
Topics covered include:
- Basic physiology and biophysics of EMG generation
- Needle and surface electrode detection techniques
- Signal conditioning and processing issues
- Single- and multi-channel techniques for information extraction
- Development and application of physical models
- Advanced signal processing techniques

Reviews for Electromyography
"...the best single reference book currently available in the field…" (Annals of Biomedical Engineering, November 2005) "...the authors successfully reported...the unknown aspects of electromyography, in particular the non-invasive approaches to the neurophysiological monitoring of the central nervous system."
