EEG :
EEG is called an electroencephalogram. It can be described as a diagnostic test that is advised to diagnose the disease conditions that affect the brain. The EEG test can be helpful in the measurement of the electrical activity of the brain. EEG test can be advised for the diagnosis of conditions such as memory loss, fainting, confusion, changes in behavior, coma, alzheimers disease, dementia, tumors, traumatic brain injury, and encephalitis. There are many types seen in EEG test such as prolonged EEG, routine EEG, ambulatory EEG, video EEG, sleep EEG. EEG can work by recording the waves that are passing in the brain and thus generates an output in the form of waves over the computer screen which helps in recreating the brain activity pattern. For the procedure of EEG, a person should lie down on a bed or chair and 23 electrodes are placed upon the scalp with a gel or glue and then record the activity of the brain. The risks that can be observed with the EEG test are very rare, such as dizziness, which may also cause an epileptic seizure in some cases.
