4. Fig. 3
Mean ± SD tissue blood flow values measured in all ROIs that represent the transverse section of the thigh at rest (R1, R2, R3) and during the 3 stimulation programs (S1, S2, S3). Letters in histograms give information about the statistical analysis: histograms with a similar letter do not differ significantly between each other (P>.05) and a different letter in 2 histograms corresponds to a statistical difference between the corresponding data sets (P>.05) (n=10). TBF, tissue blood flow.

5. Fig. 4
Mean ± SD tissue blood flow values during the 3 stimulation programs in relation to the distance between the ROI and the electrode. The range of numbers on the horizontal axis indicates the separation distance.

6. Fig. 5
Percentage of activated ROI (tissue blood flow >5mL · min−1 · 10g−1) during the 3 stimulation programs in relation to the distance between the ROI and the electrode. The range of numbers on the horizontal axis indicates the separation distance. AROI, activated ROI; all, all ROI.
