What It Is
EEG records the brain's electrical activity through small scalp electrodes. It is the key test for diagnosing epilepsy, classifying seizure types, and evaluating unexplained loss of consciousness — available as routine and video-EEG.
What to Expect
Who It Is For
Patients with seizures or possible seizures, blank spells, unexplained blackouts or falls, night-time events, and children (6+) with staring or jerking episodes.
Aftercare
None — electrode gel washes out with normal shampoo. A normal EEG between attacks does not exclude epilepsy; interpretation always pairs with the clinical story.

Activation steps (flashing lights, deep breathing) occasionally provoke findings — that is diagnostic gold, and the setting is fully controlled and safe.
