This brief article is an overview of my personal experience over the past almost 10 years of the clinical use of EEG and quantitative EEG (qEEG) functional neuroimaging in a busy pediatric neurology practice. The concomitant use of surface EEG and functional electromagnetic EEG neuroimaging/qEEG in clinical practice provides significant additional clinical and neurophysiologic information. The qEEG is a noninvasive, inexpensive, portable technique with high temporal resolution (milliseconds) and improving spatial resolution (down to 3 mm3) and is an appropriate and validated tool for investigation of abnormal brain dynamics and connectivity of neuronal networks in clinical disorders of the brain. This article describes the daily applicability and utility of this modality in assisting diagnosis and clinical management of patients with a wide variety of presenting symptoms, including headaches, tics, autism spectrum disorder, inattention, sleep dysregulation, anxiety, and depression. The ease of data acquisition and analysis in clinical practices, coupled with skilled interpretation and clinical application, makes this tool one of the most valuable clinical tools to complement a thorough history and examination process.

联合EEG-qEEG功能神经影像在小儿神经科学实践中的临床应用：个人视角

这篇简短的文章概述了我过去近 10 年在繁忙的儿科神经病学实践中临床使用脑电图和定量脑电图 (qEEG) 功能性神经影像学的个人经验。在临床实践中同时使用表面 EEG 和功能性电磁 EEG 神经影像学/qEEG 提供了重要的额外临床和神经生理学信息。qEEG 是一种非侵入性、廉价、便携的技术，具有高时间分辨率（毫秒）和改进的空间分辨率（低至 3 mm3），是一种适当且经过验证的工具，用于调查脑部临床疾病中的异常脑动力学和神经元网络的连通性。脑。本文描述了这种模式在协助诊断和临床管理具有多种表现症状（包括头痛、抽搐、自闭症谱系障碍、注意力不集中、睡眠失调、焦虑和抑郁）的患者中的日常适用性和实用性。临床实践中数据采集和分析的简便性，加上熟练的解释和临床应用，使该工具成为补充完整病史和检查过程的最有价值的临床工具之一。
