Reinvigorate Your Patients and
Practice With Technology
Presented by NASA-Trained sEMG Researcher
David Marcarian
Everyone Uses and Respects Technology
Would You Take Your Car To This Mechanic?
Every Spine Has a Story: We Need an Amplifier to
Extract the Invisible For All To See
Static sEMG is An Electronic Form of
Palpation
• Significantly more reliable.
• Significantly better intraexaminer
reliability
• “Shows Quantitatively What You
Feel.
• Shows Contracture & Hyperactivity.

EP Stress Score: Static sEMG Simplified. Sum of All
Electrophysiological EMG readings in Microvolts
Preadjustment Postadjustment
Static sEMG Reproducibility? Actual Test-
Retest Performed April 2014 Before Audience
Pre-Test: EP Stress Score 244 Microvolts
Post-Test: EP Stress Score 254 Microvolts:
Difference? 10 Millionths of a volt!
Standing, Body May Shift
Left to right, with
arrows shifting left to
right, but Sum of all
activity (EP Stress
Score) stays the same.
NOTE: Microvolts is
millionths of a volt.
Interpretation Is Now A Snap!
High Readings Match Palpation?
Hyperactivity or Spasm (Acute)
LOW Readings Opposite of
Palpation (muscles feel taut)?
Fatigued Muscles Due to
Contracture or Overuse (Chronic)
EP Stress Score? Baseline Used to
Track Progress over time (per VA
Hospital Study)
Designed by NASA Trained sEMG Expert
• Trained at NASA-Ames Research Center: SEMG &
Ergonomics.
• Awarded $450,000.00 National Institutes Of Health
Grant to Develop Technology for SEMG and
Thermography
• Course Endorsed By Every State Association Where
Training Required, including Michigan, Ohio,
Washington, Texas, and others.
• Has Lectured for CMCC, TCC, Parker College,
Sherman College.
• Selected As Panel Expert On SEMG By FCER.
• Court Cases Won: 100%
• Recent Superior Court Victory In Florida, Found
Surface EMG To Be Valid.
What do Patients Think of E-Scan with EP
Stress Score?
But How Do I use Technology for PI? I hear it
is so lucrative?
“Thank you David for making the
unseen known to the unbelieving.”
Attorney B Casey 4/25/2014
Dynamic sEMG: Measures Range of Motion + Muscle
Guarding
www.myovision.com Manufactured in the USA
Document Guarding with Simultaneous
sEMG & ROM
Tested in Court: Marcarian vs. 300 Insurers, 75
Attorneys and the State of Florida. Who Won?
For Attorneys: AMA’s acceptance of MyoVision
Means Admissibility in Court.
Validates Patients Complaints, Reduces Stress
For Them; Helps Attorneys Focus
There is Even a CPT Code for Billing
Data Vs. Opinion? MyoVision Data WINS
Never Have an Attorney Ask You To Cut Your
Bill Again?
Every Spine Has a Story. Technologize and
Watch Your Practice Thrive
Every Spine Has a Story. Technologize and
Watch Your Practice Thrive
Every Warrior Has a Weapon. Surface EMG is
the Weapon of Choice The DC of the Future.
