Normative QEEG/ERP Data for Healthy Volunteers
Recruiting
Many scientific papers have reported that ERP and QEEG biomarkers can be useful in the evaluation of neurological and psychiatric disorders. A study previously conducted with the COGNISION® system has shown how data collected with the system could help detect cognitive deficits in elderly individuals with probable early Alzheimer's disease (Cecchi et al., 2015). Furthermore, normative ranges for ERP and QEEG parameters are sensitive to subject age (see for example van Dinteren et al., 2014). Thi... Read More
