Using a highly readable, conversational writing style, Practical Approach to Electroencephalography, 2nd Edition, makes a complex and critically important subject easier to understand. It provides just the right amount of guidance you need, explaining EEG waveforms starting with the basics, then bringing you to a sophisticated level in interpreting EEG tracings—explaining what to do, what not to do, what to look for, and what the results mean. Emphasizing pattern recognition and also why the patterns look the way they do, Dr. Libenson’s approachable text focuses on the types of EEG tracings you are likely to encounter in your EEG laboratory, both in the outpatient lab and in the ICU, concentrating at first on the questions and problems encountered by the beginner and non-expert, but bringing you up to the level of an expert.
