Statistical parametric mapping of three-dimensional local activity distribution of skeletal muscle using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)

Abstract Analysis of the internal local activity distribution in human skeletal muscles is important for managing muscle fatigue/pain and dysfunction. However, no method is established for three-dimensional (3D) statistical analysis of features of activity regions common to multiple subjects during...
