1 Relative and Absolute Reliabilities of the Myotonometric Measurements of Hemiparetic Arms in Patients With Stroke  Li-Ling Chuang, PhD, PT, Keh-Chung Lin, ScD, OTR, Ching-Yi Wu, ScD, OTR, Chein-Wei Chang, MD, Hsieh-Ching Chen, PhD, Hsin- Pei Yin, MD, Lei Wang, BS  Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation  Volume 94, Issue 3, Pages (March 2013) DOI: /j.apmr Copyright © 2013 American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 The graph depicts waveforms of displacement (s), velocity (v), and acceleration (a) of the muscle acquired in the process of damped natural oscillations in myotonometry. T is the oscillation period, t is the duration, amax is the maximal amplitude of oscillation, and Δ l is the maximal deformation depth of the muscle.

3 Fig 2 Bland-Altman plots show the differences between measures from the 2 test sessions against the mean of the 2 test sessions for each participant for (A) biceps' tone (Hz), (B) biceps' elasticity, and (C) biceps' stiffness (N/m). The solid line in the center of each graph represents the mean of the differences. The 2 dashed lines indicate 95% limits of agreement (mean of the difference±1.96SD of the difference between test-retest measurements).
