Quantitative Electroencephalography (qEEG): Information & Discussion
It is now almost common to hear about athletes who suffered a number of concussions over their careers having some difficulties later in life. The damage can be very serious.
Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy(CTE) is associated with repeated head traumas — concussions or sub-concussive hits — that are not allowed to properly heal. It is a progressive [...]
The American Academy of Neurology (AAN)—an association of more than 22,500 neurologists and neuroscience professionals dedicated to providing the best possible care for patients with neurological disorders—is an advocate for policy measures that promote high quality, safe care of individuals participating in contact sports.
Concussion is a common consequence of trauma to the head in contact [...]

I’d like to just throw out there a few other findings that were discovered in a [...]
I often get questions about Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and the EEG.
Whenever a client presents with the question of dementia, all other forms of
dementia need to be ruled out before you are left with the diagnosis of AD.
