By spectral EEG-mapping and EP-mapping, especially the topologic dimension of electrical brain activity can be evaluated for clinical use. On the other hand, this method allows the highest solution from all functional imaging procedures within the time dimension of brain activity. On the other hand, the ability of topological solution is limited. But the latter is probably better than hitherto assumed and surprisingly well at least regarding neonates. However, several methodological prerequisites described here must be fulfilled. From the pathophysiological point of view, the limits must be considered besides the diagnostic possibilities. Meanwhile, spectral EEG-mapping and EP-mapping are diagnostically used in all main fields of traditional EEG-analysis, like seizures and in the preadiagnostics of tumors a.o. Also in the diagnostics of cerebrovascular disease including transient ischemic attacks, the EEG-mapping and/or EP-mapping are useful within the total diagnostics. There is a similar situation in the diagnostics of degenerative brain disorders. But the significance of frequently described changes inpsychoses, partly also neuroses and other functional disorders is not clear. Altogether, this non-invasive, economically most favourable method for the functional imaging procedures in brain diagnostics is promising to extent the routine diagnostics also to a more precise manner.
