Tensiomyography (TMG) is a measuring method for detection of skeletal muscles' contractile properties. [1] Tensiomyography assesses muscle mechanical response based on radial muscle belly displacement induced by a single electrical stimulus. [2] It is performed using the TMG S2 system.
Displacement measurement is the measurement of changes in directed distance (displacement). Devices measuring displacement are based on displacement sensors, which can be contacting or non-contacting. [1] Some displacement sensors are based on displacement transducers, [2] devices which convert displacement into another form of energy. [3]
In males the clavicle is usually longer and larger than in females. A study measuring 748 males and 252 females saw a difference in collarbone length between age groups 18–20 and 21–25 of about 6 and 5 mm (0.24 and 0.20 in) for males and females respectively. [9] The left clavicle is usually longer and weaker than the right clavicle. [8] [10]
This is a list of units of measurement based on human body parts or the attributes and abilities of humans (anthropometric units). It does not include derived units further unless they are also themselves human-based. These units are thus considered to be human scale and anthropocentric.
Spondylolisthesis is when one spinal vertebra slips out of place compared to another. [1] While some medical dictionaries define spondylolisthesis specifically as the forward or anterior displacement of a vertebra over the vertebra inferior to it (or the sacrum), [2] [3] it is often defined in medical textbooks as displacement in any direction.
The interclavicular ligament is a flattened band, which varies considerably in form and size in different individuals, it passes in a curved direction from the upper part of the sternal end of one clavicle to that of the other, and is also attached to the upper margin of the sternum. [1]
The clavicle represents the first remains of the extinct species Australopithecus sediba, found in South Africa and believed to be an early Homo relative. The thumb bone was found at Rising Star ...
Acromioclavicular joint dislocations are graded from I to VI. Grading is based upon the degree of separation of the acromion from the clavicle with weight applied to the arm. Grade I is slight displacement of the joint, and a badly stretched or partially torn AC ligament. It has the normal separation of <4 mm.
