Description
This book educates the reader on the cellular and neurophysiological aspects of Electroencephalography (EEG), alongside its technical and engineering principles. Providing a background on normal EEG, the content includes the clinical applications of EEG in epilepsies and other brain disorders in order to provide the reader with the necessary knowledge to use EEG in clinical practice.
Aimed at those who in the earlier stages of using EEGs, this resource provides an effective overview and offers a key resource to anyone using EEGs.

Udaya Seneviratne is an academic clinician-researcher practicing as a Neurologist/Epileptologist in Australia. He has published over 100 papers and 4 book chapters. The vast majority of his publications are in the field of EEG. Dr. Seneviratne is a regular peer-reviewer for leading epilepsy and neurophysiology journals including Epilepsia, Seizure, Epilepsy & Behavior, and Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology. He also serves on the editorial board of Frontiers in Neurology journal. Dr. Seneviratne has 20 years of experience in teaching EEGs to neurology trainees and fellows in Australia. The inspiration to author this book has emanated from the feedback from his trainees. He has utilized his vast experience in EEG teaching to make this publication a valuable handbook for trainees and fellows.
