"It was through the work of Duchenne that electricity came to be recognized both as a powerful means of diagnosis and as a tool for studying the physiology of muscles in the living body. Having discovered that it was possible to limit the effects of electricity to single muscles or bundles of muscle fibers, Duchenne devoted himself to experiments in which he used electric stimulation to determine the movements of all the voluntary muscles in the body"--Norman.
