ABSTRACT
Interpretation of awake electroencephalogram (EEG) gives a fundamental and a significant information for human brain activities in the clinical diagnosis. The system for automatic interpretation of both background EEG and spikes as paroxysmal abnormalities has been constructed in the past and is already utilized in a clinical diagnosis as an assistant tool. Actvation test as photic stimulation and hyperventilation is usually included in EEG recordings, and the reaction of EEG on such test gives an additional information of brain function. In this study, automatic judgement of activation test for photic stimulation and hyperventilation, which was newly developed, was combined with automatic intergrative EEG interpretation system.
