About this trial

Neuronostics plan a prospective multisite trial to determine the clinical utility of BioEP in the context of diagnostic decision making. Neuronostics will use findings from the trial to improve user experience of the Neuronostics platform (the tool which clinicians use to obtain a BioEP score from EEG and the aligned report). The data coming from the trial will also enable Neuronostics to iterate the BioEP algorithms and so improve future performance.
