In this discussion, neurocare’s Dr. Trevor Brown engages with Dr. Nash Boutros, a respected psychiatrist and neurologist, and director of electrophysiology at the Neuroscience Center in Deerfield, Illinois. Dr. Boutros delves into the electrophysiology of psychiatric disorders, focusing on EEG abnormalities in conditions like autism, panic attacks, and ADHD, indicating hyperexcitability in the brain with significant impacts on behavior and cognition.



He emphasizes the importance of standard EEG interpretation and quantitative EEG (QEEG) in clinical practice for accurate abnormality detection and precise treatment guidance. The conversation also explores the use of anti-convulsant medications in managing these conditions and the potential of neuromodulation techniques.

Dr. Boutros emphasizes the need for increased focus on electrophysiology in psychiatry, leading to improved diagnostic precision and more effective patient management. This discussion provides valuable insights into the current state and future possibilities in neurology and psychiatry.
