title: Lissajous figures of differential electromyograms of the paired temporal and paired masseter muscles in human mastication.
abstract: To represent the co-operative work of these muscles on both sides, a new method of differential Lissajous electromyography was devised to show their simultaneous actions. The resulting figures demonstrated the different co-operative activities of the muscles with different types of food.
