Quantitative EEG

Quantitative EEG (QEEG) - Understanding Your Brain

QEEG brain map
  • QEEG is one of the most important assessment tools in modern neurotherapy and the basis for a customised neurofeedback protocol.
  • It reveals which brain areas are over- or under-active, how networks function, and whether abnormalities such as paroxysmal activity are present.
  • At the I-NFBF, we use a large internal database with thousands of assessments in combination with the NeuroGuide normative database.

What Is a QEEG?

A QEEG records and analyses the electrical activity of your brain and compares it with an age-matched normative database (Z-scores). This allows activation patterns, network functions, paroxysmal activities, and cognitive performance profiles to be displayed precisely.

Procedure

Step What Happens
Preparation A comfortable EEG cap is fitted and connected to the system
Recording Recording with eyes closed and open, and if needed with tasks
Duration & tolerance Approximately 20 minutes; pain-free, non-invasive, and also suitable for children

What Does the QEEG Show?

  • Activation patterns in over- or under-aroused regions.
  • Network function and coherence.
  • Paroxysmal activity as an indicator of increased excitability.
  • Cognitive profiles such as attention, memory, and processing, supplemented by psychometric tests if needed.

From QEEG to the Treatment Plan

  1. Analysis and discussion of your QEEG results.
  2. Identification of your brain's strengths and weaknesses.
  3. Creation of an individual neurofeedback protocol based on QEEG, stress profile, case history, and self-assessment.
  4. Definition of realistic, measurable therapy goals and monitoring through follow-up QEEGs.
