The invention provides a sphenoid needle type electrode for an electroencephalogram detector. The electrode comprises an electrode needle, a wiring terminal, an electrode connecting wire and an electroencephalogram tester, wherein the wiring terminal and the electrode needle are connected sequentially on the electrode connecting wire of the electroencephalogram tester; the electrode needle and the wiring terminal are fixedly or movably connected; the wiring terminal and the electrode connecting wire are fixedly connected; and the electrode connecting wire and the electroencephalogram tester are connected. The sphenoid needle type electrode has the characteristics of reasonable structure, simple operation, acupoint hit positioning, strong pertinence, high accuracy, accurate data, quick confirmed diagnosis, good effect, low cost, no pain of a patient, small economical burden and the like, and is simple to operate. Particularly, a needle type electrode structure is adopted, an acupoint hit positioning monitor technology is realized, the accuracy of monitoring data is improved to quickly diagnose the symptom of the patient, carrying is convenient, the accuracy of data collection is improved, the misdiagnose rate is reduced, and time and cost for medical treatment are saved, so that the electrode is an ideal mating electrode for a dedicated electroencephalogram tester for electroencephalogram data collection.
