Abstract
A multi-use electroencephalogram (EEG) system and method consists of a strobe where the strobe is adjustable to produce single and multiple strobe flashes. An EEG device connected with the strobe configured for time-locking an EEG recording with the strobe where the EEG device measures patient flash visual evoked potential (FVEP) response to the strobe flashes and a controller connected with the strobe and the EEG device where the controller operates the strobe to produce one single strobe flash condition followed by a double strobe flash condition employing various interstimulus intervals in a complete counterbalanced order.
Claims18
A multi-use electroencephalogram (EEG) system comprising:
- a. a strobe where the strobe is adjustable to produce a single strobe flash then multiple strobe flashes;
- b. an EEG device configured for time-locking an EEG recording with the strobe where said EEG device measures patient flash visual evoked potential (FVEP) response to the single strobe f lash and the multiple strobe flashes;
- and
- c. a controller connected with said strobe and said EEG device wherein said controller operates said strobe to produce one single strobe flash condition followed by a double strobe flash condition employing various interstimulus intervals in a complete counterbalanced order.
A multi-use electroencephalogram (EEG) system comprising:
- a. a strobe where the strobe produces a single strobe flash then multiple double strobe flashes of various durations, intensities, colors, and frequencies;
- b. a multi-use EEG acquisition system configured for recording both a continuous EEG and a time-locked EEG, including flash visual evoked potential (FVEP) and event-related potentials;
- c. a multi-use EEG analysis system, connected with the multi-use acquisition system, configured for analyzing both the continuous EEG and the time-locked EEG, including the FVEP and the event-related potentials wherein the multi-use EEG analysis system is configured for connection with a computer enabling uploading of recordings and downloading of descriptive reports.
A multi-use electroencephalogram (EEG) method consisting of:
- a. providing a strobe where the strobe is adjustable to produce a single strobe flash then multiple strobe flashes;
- an electroencephalogram (EEG) device configured for time-locking with the strobe where said EEG device measures patient flash visual evoked potential (FVEP) response to the single strobe flash and the multiple strobe flashes and a controller connected with said strobe and said EEG device wherein said controller operates said strobe to produce one single strobe flash condition followed by one double strobe flash condition;
- and
- b. activating the controller to operate the strobe such that the EEG device obtains the FVEP responses.
