A gamma wave or gamma rhythm is a pattern of neural oscillation in humans with a frequency between 30 and 100 Hz, the 40 Hz point being of particular interest. [1] Gamma waves with frequencies between 30 and 70 hertz may be classified as low gamma , and those between 70 and 150 hertz as high gamma .
This is a list of mnemonics used in medicine and medical science, categorized and alphabetized.
