Abstract

Electroencephalogram(EEG) and transcranial Doppler(TCD) recordings were carried out in 25 children with migraine during ictal and interictal period. The results were that the abnormal rate of EEG and TCD was 85% and 72%, respectively; the positive rate of EEG provoked test was 60%; there was the single untypical epileptiform wave in the occipital in 3 patients by EEG. We conclude that EEG combined TCD examination in migraine can increase the correct rate of diagnosis and help to differ epilepsy from migraine.
