Correlating motor unit morphology with bioelectrical activity – a simulation study

Simulation studies on motor unit potentials (MUPs), apart from clinical experience, are important in understanding how the morphological features such as number of fibers, their diameters and distribution within the motor unit area influence the MUP waveform (Dumitru et al., 1997; Nandedkar et al., 1988b; Nandedkar and Sanders, 1989; Stålberg and Karlsson, 2000, 2001; Zalewska et al., 2004). Simulation enables the relationship between motor unit morphology and MUP shape variability to be determined.
