Index
The single-best resource available for learning how to perform and interpret video EEG
Companion DVD shows real-time Video EEG in practice!
The Atlas of Video-EEG Monitoring explains the essentials of video EEG for use in all settings. This full-color atlas thoroughly covers the basics of performing video EEG for diagnosis along with how to use video EEG for the diagnosis and interpretation of first and/or repeated seizures, during treatment of epilepsy, in the emergency department and intensive care unit, and during surgery.
