Abstract

Headaches are common neurological disorders. Migraine is characterized by moderate to severe, throbbing or dull and lateralized pain. Neurophysiology of migraine is unknown.The objective review EEG in migraine. EEG evidence vary depending on the presence or absence of symptoms in interictal records indicate a slower and asymmetrical EEG in the migraine attack alterations in the alpha band, sensory hypersensitivity and habituation difficulties related potentials events. Overall, the changes in the band oligaemia alpha correlated with cerebral blood flow, which may explain the gnósitic and visual attentional disorders, while the general slowing of the EEG and the decrease in the speed of processing interictal could be due to subcortical alterations.
