The application of electroencephalography (EEG) in the study of epilepsy, anesthesia, and sleep disorders is a promising and rapidly evolving area of research. This neuroimaging technique captures brain's electrical activity and provides unique insights into its complex dynamics. Our research focuses on leveraging advanced signal processing techniques to interpret EEG signals, with the aim of improving the detection and understanding of epilepsy seizures, optimizing anesthesia dosage, and enhancing sleep studies. In the case of epilepsy, we aim to develop algorithms for real-time seizure detection and prediction, potentially transforming epilepsy management and reducing the risks associated with unpredicted seizures.
Signal processing techniques also play a crucial role in refining our understanding of anesthetic drug effects and optimizing dosage. By analyzing EEG patterns, we can gain insights into the brain's response to anesthesia, aiding in the precise titration of drug dosage to minimize side effects while ensuring patient comfort and safety. Similarly, EEG-based sleep studies benefit greatly from signal processing. Distinct EEG patterns correspond to different sleep stages and disruptions, providing a wealth of information on sleep quality and disorders. Through the extraction and analysis of these patterns, we aim to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders. In all these areas, our research seeks to harness the rich information in EEG signals, facilitated by signal processing techniques, to improve clinical outcomes and patient quality of life.
