MyoVision now offers high-tech Silver / Silver Chloride Electrode recommended by NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) and found in $30K plus sEMG and EKG systems. 

If you evaluate high-end Hospital Grade EKG and sEMG systems, you will find  the electrode of choice is the same as found on the MyoVision system:  The Silver / Silver Chloride electrode. 

According to David Marcarian, designer of the MyoVision Surface EMG System:

"To settle for less than the absolute best technology for our doctors but more importantly their patients would not match up with the basic MyoVision philosophy of underpromise, overdeliver.  MyoVision integrated these very expensive electrodes into each and every machine without raising the cost by optimizing the manufacturing process instead".

"Silver / Silver Chloride has certain electrochemical properties which allow it to provide a very balanced and consistent sEMG signal not found with single compound electrodes". According to "NIOSH's book on Surface EMG titled: " Selected Topics in Surface Electromyography for Use in the Occupational Setting: Expert Perspective": Silver/ Silver Chloride electrodes are the electrodes of choice. These electrodes are the same type found in the MyoVision System.

Since 1989, doctors worldwide have been relying upon MyoVision to supply the best technology available, at an affordable price.
