Spinal Reflex Arc Excitability Corresponding to the Vastus Medialis Obliquus and Vastus Medialis Longus Muscles

[Purpose] The gross morphology of the vastus medialis (VM) muscle has been thoroughly described. However, there is insufficient evidence of physiological differentiation between the VM obliquus (VMO) and VM longus (VML). To elucidate spinal reflex arc excitability in two divisions of the VM, we com...
