With the high incidence of neurological diseases such as stroke and mental illness, rehabilitation treatments for neurological disorders have received widespread attention. Electroencephalography (EEG) technology, despite its excellent temporal resolution, has historically been limited in application due to its insufficient spatial resolution, and is mainly confined to preoperative assessment, intraoperative monitoring, and epilepsy detection. However, traditional constraints of EEG technology are being overcome with the popularization of EEG technology with high-density over 64-lead, the application of innovative analysis techniques and the integration of multimodal techniques, which are significantly broadening its applications in clinical settings. These advancements have not only reinforced the irreplaceable role of EEG technology in neurorehabilitation assessment, but also expanded its therapeutic potential through its combined use with technologies such as transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial electrical stimulation and brain-computer interfaces. This article reviewed the applications, advancements, and future prospects of EEG technology in neurorehabilitation assessment and treatment. Advancements in technology and interdisciplinary collaboration are expected to drive new applications and innovations in EEG technology within the neurorehabilitation field, providing patients with more precise and personalized rehabilitation strategies.
