EEG Technology: A Comprehensive Review Course
October 23 - 24, 2010 ♦ Ann Arbor, MI
Host: University of Michigan Health System
Early Bird Registration Deadline September 22, 2010
Scholarship Deadline 08/23/10
This is an intermediate level course, intended for technologists with some experience. The course covers concepts that are appropriate for technologists planning to take the EEG registry exam. Topics include: neuroanatomy, clinical correlations, abnormal EEG findings, instrumentation principles, and waveform analysis techniques. There is an emphasis on pattern recognition and a record review session. During the 10/20 workshop participants may elect to place a full set of electrodes on a “Sam” head and get tips on placement from expert instructors.
This is a comprehensive course that reviews topics of interest to technologists performing routine EEGs, and will award approximately 13.5 ACE credits that can be applied toward recertification.
By attending this course you will be able to:
Improve measurement and application techniques and develop critical skills in evaluating the accuracy of electrode placement;
Understand waveform polarity and EEG localization techniques;
Understand the use of filters and differential amplifiers
Critically evaluate recorded studies and use appropriate terminology to describe EEG patterns;
Apply instrumentation principles to your recording techniques
Enhance your pattern recognition skills
Who should attend?
This seminar is designed for technologists with some experience and a basic understanding of normal EEG patterns. Technologists planning to take the written or oral EEG Board Exam and experienced technologists wishing to enhance or further their knowledge should consider this course.
Registration fees on or before September 22nd:
ASET Member: $375
Non-Member: $475
Registration fees after September 22nd:

October 23 - 24, 2010 ♦ Ann Arbor, MI
Host: University of Michigan Health System
Early Bird Registration Deadline September 22, 2010
Scholarship Deadline 08/23/10
This is an advanced practice course for technologists who have extensive experience in basic EEG and are now planning to expand their scope of practice to advanced procedures in ICU and LTM continuous EEG monitoring. The content of this course will address future trends in equipment and utilization of continuous EEG.
By attending this course you will:
Learn about the latest options for equipment and software to record continuous neurophysiological signals in the LTM and ICU setting
Understand brain mapping and other localizing techniques
Hear fascinating case studies and learn about clinical applications in a variety of disease states
Gain the knowledge you need to accept an expanded role as part of the LTM/ICU neuro team
Who should attend?
This seminar is designed for technologists who are experienced and are facing challenges in continuous monitoring of epilepsy and critical care patients, and for those who are seeking an educational opportunity for recertification that will provide and interesting and inspiring look into our future.
