Computational methods for quantifying in vivo muscle fascicle curvature from ultrasound images

Muscle fascicles curve during contraction, and this has been seen using B-mode ultrasound. Curvature can vary along a fascicle, and amongst the fascicles within a muscle. The purpose of this study was to develop an automated method for quantifying curvature across the entirety of an imaged muscle, t...
