 NR\n\nFriday\, May 2\, 2025 at 12:00noon EDT - this is a 90-minute webinar
 \n\nThis webinar is in remembrance of Joel Lubar\, clinician\, researcher 
 extraordinaire\, IQCB Director\, and inspiration to create these guideline

 ription:  QEEG is increasingly being used worldwide for research and cli
 nical purposes and it is essential that consistent standards be applied to
  its acquisition\, processing\, and interpretation. This webinar will prov
 ide an overview of these standards as outlined in these guidelines.\n\nIQC
 B board members and advisors collaborated to create these guidelines spear
 headed by board advisor\, Tom Collura. Co-authors will be presenting a bri
 ef synopsis each portion of this article.\n\nAs taken from the Introductio
 n of the Guidelines: The purpose of this guideline is to specify the minim
 um alterations/adaptations\, and additional necessary processing steps req
 uired to obtain standardized QEEG results for purposes of reporting\, plan
 ning of treatment\, and assessment of progress\, as well as for forensic a
 nd insurance purposes. The main intent of this guideline\, endorsed by the
  International QEEG Certification Board (IQCB)\, is to provide guidelines
  for EEG/QEEG submissions to the IQCB for purposes of obtaining practicum 
 and mentoring credit toward certification. It is also intended as an educ
 ational resource when teaching proper QEEG practices. As a general standar
 d\, it is intended that conformance to this guideline would provide suitab
 le evidence to refute challenges to QEEG data used in forensic or research
  set-tings. While it is not considered a requirement for all QEEG work\, i
 t sets a standard for intakes and baselines\, and for data intended for co
 mparative studies. It does not preclude the use of short recordings\, in a
 ppropriate clinical settings. However\, any such ad-hoc recordings could n
 ot be said to comply with the IQCB guidelines.\n\nOVERVIEW:\nBackground St

 titative electroencephalogram (QEEG) is a technology which has grown expon
 entially since the foundational publication by in Science in 1997\, introd
 ucing the use of age-regressed metrics to quantify characteristics of the 
 EEG signal\, enhancing the clinical utility of EEG in neuropsychiatry. Ess
 ential to the validity and reliability of QEEG metrics is standardization 
 of multi-channel EEG data acquisition which follows the standards set fort
 h by the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society including accurate mana
 gement of artifact and facilitation of proper visual inspection of EEG par
 oxysmal events both of which are expanded in this guideline. Additional re
 quirements on the selection of EEG\, quality reporting\, and submission of
  the EEG to spectral\, statistical\, and topographic analysis are proposed
 . While there are thousands of features that can be mathematically derived
  using QEEG\, there are common features that have been most recognized and
  most validated in clinical use and these along with other mathematical to
 ols\, such as low resolution electromagnetic tomographic analyses (LORETA)
  and classifier functions\, are reviewed and cautions are noted. The ef
 ficacy of QEEG in these applications depends strongly on the quality of t
 he acquired EEG\, and the correctness of subsequent inspection\, selection
 \, and processing. These recommendations which are described in the follow
 ing sections as minimum standards for the use of QEEG are supported by the
  International QEEG Certification Board (IQCB).
