A new EEG book

This book will replace the old Tyner EEG books. Although regarded by many as the BIBLE for electroneurodiagnostic techs, Tyner is very old and does not address new techniques. This new book is authored by Thoru Yamada, the editor of the American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology journal, and a regular participant in the preparation of the EEG portion of the neurology boards. Part 1 focuses on technical aspects of electroneurodiagnosis and Part 2 focuses on clinical applications and diagnostic utilities of electroneurodiagnosis for various central nervous system disorders. Difficult concepts are simplified and unnecessary details relating to clinical practice are not included. The text focuses on digital recording and includes analyses based on digital data. This book is written for technologists and students, neurology residents, and clinical neurophysiology fellows. It will assist in preparation for either the ABRET (American Board of Registration of Electroencephalographic & Evoked Potential Technologists) certification or the neurophysiology boards.
