Statistical Shape and Fibre Orientation Model for Muscle Architecture Characterisation of the Medial Gastrocnemius
This work offers insights into both muscle morphology and architecture of the medial gastrocnemius in individuals with CP, including variations of overall size and localised muscle fibre orientations. The quantitative descriptions of muscle architecture we present here may contribute to greater understanding of muscle function and dysfunction and may motivate imaging-informed perspectives on therapeutic interventions for CP.
