Abstract EN
Objective.
The increase of high alpha relative to low alpha power has been recently demonstrated as a reliable EEG marker of hippocampal atrophy conversion of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in Alzheimer's disease (AD).
In the present study we test the reliability of this EEG index in subjects with AD.
Methods.
Correlation between EEG markers and volumetric differences in mapped hippocampal regions was estimated in AD patients.
Results.
Results show that the increase of alpha3/alpha2 power ratio is correlated with atrophy of mapped hippocampal regions in Alzheimer's disease.
Conclusions.
The findings confirm the possible diagnostic role of EEG markers.
