Know more about this test

An Electroencephalograph (EEG) 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 Bhopal 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 (EEG) measure?

The Electroencephalograph (EEG) 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.

FAQs related to Electroencephalograph (EEG) in Bhopal

The EEG is commonly performed to diagnose seizure disorders, investigate unexplained neurological symptoms (like confusion or fainting), monitor brain activity after an injury, evaluate sleep disorders, and assess brain function in various medical conditions.
Before the EEG, wash your hair and avoid using hair products like gels or sprays. Inform your doctor about any medications you take, especially those affecting brain activity. Ensure you get adequate rest the night before the test.
During the test, you’ll be asked to lie down comfortably. Electrodes will be placed on your scalp, and you may be asked to perform specific tasks, such as closing your eyes, opening them, or even breathing rapidly to stimulate brain activity.
After the EEG, the technician will remove the electrodes and clean your scalp. Unless your technician tells you otherwise, you can go home and go about your day. Your hair and skin might feel sticky from the adhesive, so you may want to wash your hair once you’re home.
