What is EEG (Electroencephalogram)?
EEG (Electroencephalogram) records the brain’s electrical activity through electrodes placed on the scalp, and is commonly used to help evaluate epilepsy, seizures and certain brain disorders.
An EEG is one of the most commonly used neurodiagnostic tests. Small electrodes are placed on the scalp to pick up the tiny electrical signals produced by brain activity, recorded as wave patterns for a specialist to review.
