Special Issue on Electroencephalography
Electroencephalography is the recording of electrical activity along the scalp. Electroencephalography measures voltage fluctuations resulting from ionic current flows within the neurons of the brain. In clinical contexts, electroencephalography refers to the recording of the brain's spontaneous electrical activity over a short period of time, usually 20–40 minutes, as recorded from multiple electrodes placed on the scalp. Diagnostic applications generally focus on the spectral content of electroencephalography, that is, the type of neural oscillations that can be observed in electroencephalography signals. In neurology, the main diagnostic application of electroencephalography is in the case of epilepsy, as epileptic activity can create clear abnormalities on a standard electroencephalography study. As one of the most important research fields of human health, electroencephalography is of great attractions to researchers.
In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring electroencephalography. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
-
Electroencephalogram
-
Electrical activity of scalp
-
Ionic current of brain
-
Epilepsy diagnosis
-
Brain activity monitoring
-
Independent component analysis
Authors should read over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal at Paper Submission System.
Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue - Electroencephalography” should be chosen during your submission.
