EEG (Electroencephalogram)
What It Is: An EEG is a diagnostic test that records electrical activity in the brain. It uses small electrodes placed on the scalp to measure and monitor brain wave patterns. EEG helps detect abnormalities in brain function.
Uses:
- Seizure Disorders: EEG is primarily used to diagnose epilepsy and other seizure disorders.
- Sleep Disorders: It helps in the diagnosis of sleep-related issues like sleep apnea or narcolepsy.
- Brain Activity Monitoring: It can monitor brain function in patients with head injuries or those in comas.
- Mental Health Disorders: It is also used to investigate conditions like depression, anxiety, and attention disorders, which might affect brain function.
Who Needs It:
- Individuals who experience seizures or unexplained convulsions.
- People with chronic headaches or migraines.
- Patients with memory problems, confusion, or behavioral changes.
- Those with suspected brain disorders like epilepsy, encephalitis, or sleep disturbances.
Benefits of EEG:
- Non-invasive and Painless: The procedure is safe, quick, and does not require any surgery or injections.
- Accurate Diagnosis: EEG helps provide an accurate diagnosis of neurological disorders by measuring the electrical activity of the brain.
- Monitors Brain Health: It helps doctors assess brain function, particularly in critical or emergency situations.
