title: [Methods of EEG quantification for the improvement of diagnosis in multiple sclerosis].
abstract: The quantified EEG was studied in 20 patients with multiple sclerosis. The results were compared with those of a matched control group of normal volunteers. Abnormalities in the quantified EEG could be demonstrated in 50% of the MS patients. The value of the method in clinical practice, however, is limited: 95% of our patients showed abnormal results of the CSF analysis and/or EP studies. It seems advisable to use computer analysis of the EEG only in those MS patients in whom the much simpler EP recordings and CSF analysis does not lead to conclusive results.
