QEEG Discovery and Live Z-Score | Intermediate – Advanced

For clinicians who are about to dive into the new and exciting world of QEEG brain mapping and interpretation, this workshop will unlock the mysteries of how morphology of RAW EEG which convert into color coded normative brain maps that provide clinically relevant insights. Our team of highly qualified and experienced instructors will cover everything from the basics of how databases are developed and normed to the subtle clinical skill set needed to identify and address underlying neural disregulation.  Significant time will be allotted for hands on practice with the established equipment and designs, as well as introducing cutting edge approaches that are demonstrating promising results.  The brilliant combination of the NeuroGuide database with BrainMaster’s Discovery 24E adds a dimension that allows the practitioner to observe and train brain activity monitored at up to 19 channels (LZT ZOK tm, Z PLUS tm, PZ Motive tm, PZ Mean tm, including Z Bars tm, and Live Topographic Mapping) using the innovative live Z-Score methods (P ZOK).   Practitioners from all levels of experience will walk away from this workshop with a richer understanding of how to use QEEG brain mapping and analysis to increase clinical efficacy.

    Sunday | 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm

    Hosted by: Dick A. Genardi, Ph.D. The goal for this session is to provide the participant with the support needed to feel confident in using the information gained from

    Mini-Q, Discovery qEEG reports generated via Neuroguide, and JTFA generated Z score progress summary available in session reviews of Atlantis Z-Score training sessions. The participant will be able to use the provided materials as cognitive maps for organizing and analyzing the data which the Z-Score model provides. Trust in the reliability and validity of live Z-Scores. LZT – % ZOK method rests on the neurometric rigor of the Neuroguide database (FDA 510k compliant).Review associations of Brodmann areas (BA) with 10-20 electrode sites and Loreta Regions of Interest.
