New EEG electrode set for fast and easy measurement of brain function abnormalities

Finish PhD student Pasi Lepola (email) has developed a EEG monitoring “face-mask” which seems interesting.

Although the benefits of EEG measurements are indisputable, they remain underused in acute and emergency care. A significant reason for this is the fact that the electrode sets available on the markets are difficult to attach on the patient, and their use requires special skills and constant training. This new type of an electrode set is expected to provide solutions for making EEG measurements feasible at as an early stage as possible.
