Models and simulations in electromyography.
In electromyography, one assesses the pathophysiology on the basis of the waveform characteristics of the recorded signal. This requires detailed knowledge of the relationship between the waveform generators and the waveform measurements. Models and computer simulations can be used to explore this relationship in an efficient manner. Combining models with experimental methods will allow us to define new measurements and new rules of interpretation. This is discussed with some of the models developed for electromyography signal analysis.
