The diagnostic value of electroencephalography in mild senile Alzheimer's disease

Objective: We investigated the diagnostic value of the visually assessed electroencephalogram (EEG) in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD), using the grand total of EEG (GTE) score. Methods: Forty-nine non-demented control subjects with and without minimal cognitive impairment from the...

Zusammenfassung:	Objective: We investigated the diagnostic value of the visually assessed electroencephalogram (EEG) in patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD), using the grand total of EEG (GTE) score. Methods: Forty-nine non-demented control subjects with and without minimal cognitive impairment from the general population and 86 probable AD patients (NINCDS-ADRDA criteria), consecutively referred to a memory clinic, participated in this study. Results: Frequency of rhythmic background activity ( P
