multi-site and LORETA z-score neurofeedback

Key findings

  • Frames traumatic brain injury as a major health and social problem
  • Describes the field's shift from single-channel to multi-site training
  • Presents LORETA z-score training as able to reach deeper brain regions
  • Suggests newer methods may give TBI patients improvements not possible before

A short overview article on how neurofeedback for traumatic brain injury has developed. It traces the move from single-channel training to training at multiple sites, and highlights LORETA z-score training as a way to address activity in deeper brain structures. The authors argue that these developments may offer brain injury patients gains not previously achievable; this is a review and opinion piece rather than a new study.
