  2. Electroencephalography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroencephalography

    Electroencephalography (EEG) [1] is a method to record an electrogram of the spontaneous electrical activity of the brain.The biosignals detected by EEG have been shown to represent the postsynaptic potentials of pyramidal neurons in the neocortex and allocortex. [2]

  3. Electroencephalography functional magnetic resonance imaging

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroencephalography...

    EEG-fMRI (short for EEG-correlated fMRI or electroencephalography-correlated functional magnetic resonance imaging) is a multimodal neuroimaging technique whereby EEG and fMRI data are recorded synchronously for the study of electrical brain activity in correlation with haemodynamic changes in brain during the electrical activity, be it normal function or associated with disorders.

  4. Electrogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrogram

    An electroencephalogram (EEG) is an electrical recording of the activity of the brain taken from the scalp. An EEG can be used to diagnose seizures, sleep disorders, and for monitoring of level of anesthesia during surgery.

  5. Event-related potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event-related_potential

    ERPs can be reliably measured using electroencephalography (EEG), a procedure that measures electrical activity of the brain over time using electrodes placed on the scalp. The EEG reflects thousands of simultaneously ongoing brain processes. This means that the brain response to a single stimulus or event of interest is not usually visible in ...

  6. 10–20 system (EEG) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10–20_system_(EEG)

    EEG electrode positions in the 10-10 system using modified combinatorial nomenclature, along with the fiducials and associated lobes of the brain. When recording a more detailed EEG with more electrodes, extra electrodes are added using the 10% division , which fills in intermediate sites halfway between those of the existing 10–20 system.

  7. Biofeedback - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofeedback

    An electroencephalograph (EEG) measures the electrical activation of the brain from scalp sites located over the human cortex. The EEG shows the amplitude of electrical activity at each cortical site, the amplitude and relative power of various wave forms at each site, and the degree to which each cortical site fires in conjunction with other ...

  8. Brain activity and meditation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_activity_and_meditation

    Electroencephalography (EEG) has been used in many studies as a primary method for evaluating the meditating brain. Electroencephalography uses electrical leads placed all over the scalp to measure the collective electrical activity of the cerebral cortex. Specifically, EEG measures the electric fields of large groups of neurons.

  9. Electrophysiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophysiology

    This makes it possible to measure how much ionic current crosses a cell's membrane at any given voltage. This is important because many of the ion channels in the membrane of a neuron are voltage-gated ion channels, which open only when the membrane voltage is within a certain range. Voltage clamp measurements of current are made possible by ...
