Referenced-EEG (rEEG) is used to try to determine which drug will work the best. This is from http://www.marketwired.com/press-release/referenced-eeg-reegr-shows-significant-improvement-pharmacotherapy-according-journal-1286665.htm
CNS Response today announced that physicians using Referenced-EEG (rEEG®) had "success" rates reaching 65 percent for patients with treatment-resistant depression, according to an article published today in the Journal of Psychiatric Research.
Referenced-EEG showed "significant improvement" in informing pharmacotherapy for treatment-resistant patients in a 12-week study, according to the Journal of Psychiatric Research article. The study, conducted at 12 medical sites including Harvard, Stanford and Cornell, shows that rEEG can provide important information for patients who have failed first-line treatment.
