EEG Machine Buying Guide
What to consider before you buy an EEG machine, from channel count to video, portability and accessories.
1. Decide what you will record
Routine EEG needs a reliable system with standard 10–20 electrode placement. Long-term and video EEG need more storage, a camera and review tools. Ambulatory EEG needs a wearable recorder. Neurofeedback needs real-time training software. Write down the studies you run most often before you compare machines.
2. Choose the channel count
A 24 channel EEG machine covers the full 10–20 montage plus a few extra inputs and suits most routine work. A 32 channel EEG system adds channels for extra electrodes and polygraphy, which helps with longer and more detailed studies. Higher channel systems are used for specialized monitoring.
3. Portable, cart or ambulatory
Portable EEG machines run on a laptop and move easily between rooms. Cart systems keep everything together for a busy department. Ambulatory recorders are worn by the patient at home. See portable and ambulatory EEG machines.
4. Software, video and accessories
Check the review software, montages, reporting and data export. If you need video EEG, include a camera. Budget for EEG caps, cup electrodes, paste and cables from the start.
5. Understand what drives the cost
EEG equipment cost depends on brand, channels, video, software and accessories. Prices depend on the exact model, configuration and accessories, so we quote each request individually. Send us your requirements on WhatsApp or by email, and we will reply with the options that fit your budget.
