Key findings
- Makes the case that automated artifact rejection has advantages over manual editing
- Two common qEEG normative databases produced very similar results when compared directly
- Agreement between databases is taken as support for their validity and reliability
- Standardized qEEG reading can guide both diagnosis and personalized protocol choice
An opinion and review paper on how two broad healthcare trends, standard procedures and treatment tailored to the individual, apply to quantitative EEG. It argues for automated, standardized artifact removal over manual cleaning, and reports a head-to-head comparison in which two widely used normative databases gave closely matching results. The author presents standardized qEEG interpretation as a way to tailor treatment choice while keeping methods consistent.
