This site "EEGs to view" is dedicated to Clinical Neurophysiology.
Updated 26.1.11
EPTA has changed its name to ANS (Association of Neurophysiological Scientists) and has a new website http://ansuk.org/.
The main ATLAS is presently available on the ANS website http://ansuk.org/.
This is a collection of clinical EEG records which can be examined and manipulated in detail.
Click on the image to transfer to the ANS website, then click on the tab 'Education". Scroll down to "Dr Horace Townsend's EEG Atlas"
You will need a username and password in order to access the Atlas
because it is only available to registered individuals
who will generally be Health Care professionals or research workers
in relevant fields.
Protection is required for reasons of confidentiality - Patients in
general agree for their records to be made available for teaching,
but would not necessarily be happy for records to be generally
available on the Web.
If you would like to register, please send an email to me hrat@btinternet.com
Please include the following details in your email:-
If you are a teacher it may be convenient for yourself and all your students to share a single username/password.
This link gives access to
an experimental version of the ATLAS. No password is needed.
This version includes a demonstration of Global Field Synchronization.

An additional example of Web viewing is "EP Display" (This is a display of averaged evoked potentials not an EEG.)
I have also included an illustration The Homeostat.
