Understanding Electroencephalograph in Greater Noida


What is Electroencephalograph in Greater Noida?

An Electroencephalograph test records the overall electrical activity of the brain. It helps diagnose and monitor a range of conditions affecting the brain, such as epilepsy (seizures), and other disorders affecting brain activity, such as Alzheimer’s disease, sleep disorders, or psychoses. It may also be used to evaluate symptoms like abnormal movements or behavior, cognitive decline, unexplained loss of consciousness or syncope, confusion, disorientation, etc., and the extent of brain damage in an individual in a coma. It also helps study sleep patterns, cognitive processes, and brain function. It is available at an affordable price near you in Greater Noida with our partnered labs.

During an EEG test, small sensors are placed on your scalp to pick up the electrical signals produced by the brain. These signals will be recorded by a machine and are looked at by a doctor. They indicate how well different areas of your brain are functioning. 

You should wash your hair a day before the test and avoid using products such as conditioner, hairspray, or gel. You should also avoid consuming food or drinks that have caffeine for at least 8 to 12 hours before the test.

What does Electroencephalograph measure?

The Electroencephalograph is an imaging test that utilizes a machine consisting of an amplifier, computer console, and monitor. During the procedure, the electrodes are placed on the scalp to detect electrical signals produced by neurons, which are amplified and recorded. The resulting waveforms are displayed for interpretation, allowing doctors to analyze brain function and make informed decisions. This test measures the frequency, amplitude, and patterns of brain waves, providing insight into the brain's overall function. It can also help detect abnormalities like seizure activity, encephalopathy, and sleep disorders. EEG plays a pivotal role in understanding neurological health by capturing real-time brain wave patterns.
