The electroencephalogram has been largely supplanted by neuroimaging techniques for the diagnosis and localization of ischemic stroke. However, because of its close correlation with cerebral metabolism and its ability to detect brief transient alterations in cortical function, the electroencephalogram may still be useful for certain diagnostic applications in stroke.
