What is qEEG Brain Mapping?

---

qEEG (quantitative electroencephalography) and/or brain mapping are techniques used to analyze the electrical activity of the brain.

Quantitative EEG (qEEG) Brain Mapping involves the analysis of the EEG data using computer algorithms to derive quantitative metrics. These metrics can include frequency bands (like delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma waves), coherence between different brain regions, asymmetry between brain hemispheres, and other measures.

These maps can reveal patterns of brain activity related to specific tasks or states (such as during rest, cognitive tasks, or sleep), and can help in identifying abnormalities or differences in brain function.

qEEG and brain mapping are valuable tools in neuroscience, clinical neurology, and psychology. They provide insights into brain function that can aid in treatment planning, and research into cognitive processes.
