[Use of digital technics in the display of electromyography signals].

The use of digital techniques for the display of electromyographic signals often introduces grave errors in the visualization of the high frequency signal components. The causes for this can be quantitatively deduced from the technical principles of the systems. In the digital storage oscilloscope, the accuracy of reproduction is determined by the sampling rate and the memory capacity. In addition, there may be a considerable loss of quality in the visual display of systems using computer graphics despite accurate signal acquisition. Based on the quantitative analysis recommendations as to the technical equipment and use of digital neurophysiological systems are given.
