2. Electroencephalography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroencephalography

   The EEG has been used for many purposes besides the conventional uses of clinical diagnosis and conventional cognitive neuroscience. An early use was during World War II by the U.S. Army Air Corps to screen out pilots in danger of having seizures; [116] long-term EEG recordings in epilepsy patients are still used today for seizure prediction.

3. Long-term video-EEG monitoring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-term_video-EEG_monitoring

   Long-term or "continuous" video-electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring is a diagnostic technique commonly used in patients with epilepsy.It involves the long-term hospitalization of the patient, typically for days or weeks, during which brain waves are recorded via EEG and physical actions are continuously monitored by video.

4. Amplitude integrated electroencephalography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude_integrated...

   Seizures appear on the trace as regions of high activity with a raised and compacted trace in the aEEG pane; this would correspond to high-amplitude, repetitive waveforms in the non-integrated pane. A low-amplitude or 'suppressed' trace is prognostically concerning as it indicates abnormally low brain activity.

5. Spike-and-wave - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spike-and-wave

   A spike-and-wave discharge is a regular, symmetrical, generalized EEG pattern seen particularly during absence epilepsy, also known as ‘petit mal’ epilepsy. [1] The basic mechanisms underlying these patterns are complex and involve part of the cerebral cortex , the thalamocortical network , and intrinsic neuronal mechanisms.

6. High-frequency oscillations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-frequency_oscillations

   Traditional classification of the frequency bands, that are associated to different functions/states of the brain and consist of delta, theta, alpha, beta and gamma bands. . Due to the limited capabilities of the early experimental/medical setup to record fast frequencies, for historical reason, all oscillations above 30 Hz were considered as high frequency and were difficult to investigate.

7. 10–20 system (EEG) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10–20_system_(EEG)

   EEG electrode positions in the 10-10 system using modified combinatorial nomenclature, along with the fiducials and associated lobes of the brain. When recording a more detailed EEG with more electrodes, extra electrodes are added using the 10% division , which fills in intermediate sites halfway between those of the existing 10–20 system.
