Sommario/riassunto

This reference covers clinical and bioengineering aspects of muscle reinnervation, a popular new technique at the boundary of biomedical and rehabilitation engineering and neuroscience. With contributions from pioneers in the field, the book provides a review of muscle



reinnervation from a biomedical engineering and clinical perspective. It describes neuroscience and other related neuroprosthetic techniques. A companion website offers a wide range of videos and multimedia material to aid in comprehension and application--Provided by publisher.
