Current Practice of Electroencephalography
Author: Chandler Morris
ISBN/ASIN: 1632428911
Electroencephalography (EEG) is an electrophysiological monitoring technique which is used to record the electrical activity of the brain. It measures voltage fluctuations generated due to neuronal activity in the brain. The event-related potentials and the spectral content of an EEG are vital for making medical diagnosis. This includes the diagnosis of epilepsy, sleep disorders, coma, encephalopathies, brain death, etc. It can also be used in intensive care units to monitor brain function and the effect of anesthesia/sedation in coma-induced patients, detect any secondary brain damage, and non-convulsive seizures or status epilepticus. EEG has extensive use in cognitive science and psychology, neuroscience, neurolinguistics and psychophysiological studies. This book elucidates new techniques and applications of electroencephalography in a multidisciplinary manner. It includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to electroencephalography. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject.
