DEVICE FOR THE JOINT ACQUISITION OF AT LEAST ONE SURFACE ELECTROMYOGRAPHIC SIGNAL AND ONE ECHOGRAPHIC IMAGE OF A SAME PORTION OF A MUSCLE OF A LIVING BEING, IN PARTICULAR FOR NON-INVASIVE APPLICATIONS, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD

摘要

The present invention relates to a device (1) for the joint acquisition of at least one surface electromyographic signal and one echographic image of a same portion of a muscle of a living being, in particular for non-invasive applications. The invention is characterized in that said device (1) comprises a first layer (10) consisting of cross-linked polymers, said first layer (10): - comprising at least one cavity (11) adapted to house at least one first portion (12A) of an electrode (12) for acquiring said at least one surface electromyographic signal; - being transparent to ultrasounds, so as to allow obtaining an acoustic impedance adaptation such that said joint acquisition of said at least one surface electromyographic signal and of said at least one echographic image of a same muscle portion can be obtained.
