Electroencephalography (EEG) is a diagnostic test that measures electrical activity in the brain using electrodes attached to the scalp. It is essential for diagnosing neurological conditions such as epilepsy, sleep disorders, and brain tumors. EEG provides valuable insights into brain function by capturing electrical impulses and patterns, helping doctors to assess brain health and guide treatment. Patients should consider EEG when experiencing symptoms like seizures, unexplained loss of consciousness, or persistent sleep disturbances.

When to Choose EEG:
 

• Diagnosing epilepsy and seizure disorders

 

• Evaluating sleep disorders such as insomnia or sleep apnea

 

• Assessing brain function after head injuries

 

• Investigating unexplained loss of consciousness or confusion

 

• Monitoring neurological conditions and response to treatment

 

Types of EEG Services at Our Diagnostic Centre:
 

• Routine EEG – for standard brain wave analysis

 

• Ambulatory EEG – for continuous monitoring over an extended period

 

• Sleep EEG – to study brain activity during sleep

 

• Video EEG – combines EEG with video monitoring for detailed analysis of seizures

 

• Long-Term EEG Monitoring – for extended observation of brain activity

 

Benefits of EEG:
 

• Non-invasive and painless procedure

 

• Provides real-time data on brain activity

 

• Crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning

 

Patients typically receive their EEG reports within 24-48 hours, allowing for timely diagnosis and effective management of neurological conditions.
