Abstract:
Based on the muscle tissue ultrasonic transmission model, the effects caused by the errors of probe position is investigated. The problem of reflecting the the muscle image sequence process issues at fixed position in the movement is solved.Theoretical analysis and experimental studies shows that when the deflection of probe position in a range of angles in the movement, the ultrasound image entropy keep a constant. During muscle or probe position relative displacement, the results of the muscle fatigue evaluation is not changed.The results provide a technical quantitative assessment to detect ultrasound image entropy and the muscle fatigue.
