This laboratory performs approximately 2,000 EEG's and 500 to 700 evoked potentials for the University of Maryland Medical System each year. We currently have four monitored beds outpatient video-EEG and ambulatory monitoring. The Maryland Epilepsy Center has an active outpatient program and is actively participating in clinical trials of several new investigational drugs for epilepsy. Our active seizure and surgery program performs several surgical cases a month, including focal temporal and extra-temporal resections and corpus callosotomies. The EEG fellow will be expected to concentrate initially on reading EEGs and evoked potentials in preparation for qualification by the American Board of Clinical Neurophysiology.
