- Abstract
Neuroelectrophysiological tests enable a non-invasive assessment of the nervous system function, thus playing an important role in the diagnostic process of neurological diseases. Electroencephalography is the most commonly used test in this group and primarily applied in the diagnosis of paroxysmal diseases. The undoubted advantages of the method are its repeatability and the possibility of comparison over time, which, combined with non-invasiveness, extends its application to monitoring the course of the disease. In this paper we present descriptions of three patients with diagnosis of encephalitis treated in our Department, for whom the use of electroencephalography was important in confirming the initial diagnosis and enabled the early initiation of adequate, intensive treatment.
