Electroencephalographic characterization of brain dopaminergic stimulation by apomorphine in healthy volunteers.

abstract：:Quantitative pharmaco-EEG has become a useful technique for determining pharmacodynamic parameters after CNS-active drug administration. Nevertheless, one of the most important problems faced by practitioners of pharmaco-EEG is the difficulty in evaluating drug-specific effects. In this article, a methodology for comp...
