Opplysninger	The relations between quantitative EEG, regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF), severity of disease and neuropsychological data were analyzed in 31 patients in different stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). As a group the demented patients had higher delta and theta activities, lower alpha activity and lower alpha peak frequency than control subjects. rCBF was reduced in all regions studied but mainly in the temporoparietal areas. An analysis of correlations showed a close relationship between rCBF and certain quantitative EEG parameters in AD patients, mainly the power of the theta and delta bands. Both rCBF evaluation and quantitative EEG provide functional information related to the severity of cognitive impairment.
