The effects of eccentric velocity on activation of elbow flexors: evaluation by magnetic resonance imaging

Article Abstract:

This study uses magnetic resonance imaging to compare the effects of two exercise protocols with different eccentric velocities on the activation of the elbow flexors. Findings indicate that the slow protocol preferentially activated the brachalis while the fast protocol utilized the biceps brachii and resulted in delayed muscle soreness.

Selective activation of tibialis posterior: evaluation by magnetic resonance imaging

Article Abstract:

The main aim of the study was to determine which exercise effectively activates tibialis posterior. It was observed that in people with normal Arch Index (AI), tibialis posterior (TP) was activated effectively during foot adduction.

Effect of bracing on patellar kinematics in patients with patellofemoral joint pain

Article Abstract:

Research reveals that bracing for patients with patellofemoral joint pain does not effect medial/lateral patellar displacement, or tilt. Results are based on a study of 10 females 17-46 years old using kinematic magnetic resonance imaging techniques.
