Application 2179/KOLNP/2005 published 2006-10-13, filed 2005-11-03
Disclosed is a system and method of assessing the efficacy of treatment of neurological or psychological disorders. The preferred embodiment uses at least two surface electrodes (15) to acquire EEG signals from the surface of a patient's body, and a processor (35) for computing from the EEG signals various features and indices that are representative of the patient's neurological or psychological state. Changes in these parameters may be used to assess the efficacy of treatment and to modify the treatment to optimize the resultant patient state. (FIG). 1
