Clinical Neurophysiology

← Back to Domain-Specific Abstractions by Domain

2 domain-specific abstractions whose origin domain is Clinical Neurophysiology.

  • Alpha Wave — The reactive posterior 8–13 Hz EEG rhythm of relaxed wakefulness, strongest with eyes closed and attenuated by eye opening or attention, whose identity requires topography and reactivity rather than frequency alone.
  • Stereoelectroencephalography — A patient-specific seizure-network hypothesis is sampled in three dimensions with stereotactically implanted multicontact depth electrodes, and intracerebral recordings, stimulation, anatomy, and clinical signs are integrated to guide epilepsy treatment.
