1) QEEG as practiced by a psychiatrist enables objective means to determine drug and dosage; as opposed to current practice of prescribing random drugs based on marketing claims with no means to check for objective improvements.

2) QEEG as practiced for assessment of TBI or mTBI is more accurate than MRI; brain can swell up to two days after incident.  MRI's are often taken just after an head injury incident; EEG changes after 20 minutes of incident. In military TBI, the IED blast injures the closest personnel.  The question is how to determine if the concussive force affected others within the team in a field environment ?  Fortunately, portable EEG devices with QEEG enabled software enables quick assessment. - see Emotiv.  (from AU).

I have personally seen patients improvements from PTSD, clinical depression, ADHD, ADD and concussive incidents including military grade TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury).

Had the privilege of working with NYU Brain Research Lab founders team, Dr. Roy John and Dr. Leslie Prichep.  A group colleague is Dr. Stephen Xanakis; another friend of theirs is Dr. Thatcher.  

I also worked with Dr. Carlos Sullivan (an MRI expert and neurosurgeon trained at the Mayo Clinic) and Dr. Cynthia Stoddard (top notch Clinical Psychiatrist from UW), who utilized QEEG in their practice to resolve mental health problems that could not be resolved by any other method.

Dr. Stepthen Xanakis and Dr Roy John (now-deceased) visited DoD Joint Chiefs; based on that meeting an annually renewed federal funding source was established targeted toward veterans.
