From the electrodes fine, threadlike wires lead to the machine which detects, through scalp and skull, faint electric brain impulses. A connected drum and ink recorder charts patterns. Normal frequency is ten shallow, rippling, regular waves a second. Abnormal brain waves, often running to 25 a second, show up as irregular...
