Frequently Asked Questions
What is qEEG+ Translational Imaging?
qEEG+ is a quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) analysis and reporting system designed to provide clinically relevant insights into brain function. It translates complex brainwave data into actionable reports, helping healthcare providers make informed decisions on diagnosis and treatment.
How is qEEG+ different from a standard qEEG report?
Traditional qEEG reports often present raw data without clear clinical application. qEEG+ goes beyond this by translating neurophysiological patterns into meaningful insights, allowing providers to better understand neurological dysfunction and guide treatment strategies with greater precision.
What clinical applications does qEEG+ support?
qEEG+ can assist in the assessment and treatment planning for a variety of mental health conditions, including neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD and autism spectrum disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, traumatic brain injury and concussion, addiction and recovery programs, cognitive performance optimization, sleep dysregulation, and other psychiatric conditions.
How does qEEG+ improve treatment precision?
By identifying biomarkers associated with neurological function, qEEG+ helps clinicians move beyond a trial-and-error approach. The insights gained support personalized treatment planning, whether through medication selection, neurotherapy, lifestyle modifications, or integrative interventions. qEEG+ can even help validate your current integrative treatments and measure outcomes.
Is qEEG+ intended to replace other diagnostic tools?
No, qEEG+ is designed to complement existing assessments, providing an additional layer of objective, neurophysiological data. It works alongside clinical evaluations, psychological assessments, and other clinical techniques to enhance diagnostic accuracy.
What are the advantages of using qEEG+ over other neuroimaging methods?
qEEG+ is non-invasive, radiation-free, and does not require medication washout. It provides real-time insights into brain function, can be performed in-office within minutes, and is a cost-effective alternative to all other neuroimaging.
How is the qEEG+ report generated?
The process begins with an in-office qEEG recording performed by a trained staff member. The EEG data is then securely transmitted to certified Axon EEG Solutions via our secure platform, EEGDataHub for analysis. The results are compiled into a clinically interpretable report, which providers can use to develop personalized treatment plans.
Who can benefit from integrating qEEG+ into their practice?
Psychiatrists and neurologists can use qEEG+ to improve diagnostic accuracy and refine treatment protocols. Primary care providers can identify early markers of neurological and psychiatric conditions. Therapists and psychologists can use it to support cognitive and emotional regulation interventions. Addiction and rehabilitation centers can validate experiences, track recovery progress, and predict relapse risk. Performance coaches and sports medicine experts can use it to enhance cognitive resilience and peak performance. High-risk triage and residential centers can assess suicidality and areas to support patients individually.
How can providers get started with qEEG+?
Clinicians interested in integrating qEEG+ into their practice can schedule an introductory consultation, access training and educational resources on qEEG+ interpretation, and partner with our complimentary expert analysts for ongoing support.
