Stimulation-Induced Muscle Deformation Measured with A-Mode Ultrasound Correlates with Muscle Fatigue

Stimulation-Induced Muscle Deformation Measured with A-Mode Ultrasound Correlates with Muscle Fatigue 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Muscle fatigue is a common physiological phenomenon whose onset can impair physical performance and increase the risk of injury. Traditional assessments of muscle fatigue are primarily constrained by their dependence… read more

Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Stimulation on Fingertip Can Evoke Fine Tactile Sensations and Different Local Hemodynamic Responses

Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound Stimulation on Fingertip Can Evoke Fine Tactile Sensations and Different Local Hemodynamic Responses 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Low-intensity focused ultrasound stimulation (LIFUS) has been proved effective in eliciting vibrotactile in addition to warm, cold and nociceptive pain when applied to human peripheral endings. However, if it can… read more

Multi-scale coupling between LFP and EMG in mice by low- intensity pulsed ultrasound stimulation with different number of tone-burst

Multi-scale coupling between LFP and EMG in mice by low- intensity pulsed ultrasound stimulation with different number of tone-burst 150 150 Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering (TNSRE)
Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound stimulation (LIPUS) as a non-invasive, high-spatial resolution and high penetration depth brain modulation technology has been used for modulating neuromuscular function. However, the modulation of neural electrical… read more
