An EEG is a simple, painless test that measures the electrical activity of your brain. Our neurologists use it to evaluate seizures, unexplained spells, and other concerns about how the brain is functioning.
If you have experienced episodes that are hard to explain, an EEG can provide valuable information to help guide an accurate diagnosis and the right care.
During an EEG, small sensors are placed on your scalp to record the natural electrical signals your brain produces. The test is non-invasive and does not hurt - the sensors only listen to activity, they do not send anything into your body.
The recording is then reviewed by one of our neurologists, who looks for patterns that can help confirm or rule out a diagnosis.
An EEG can give our neurologists insight into a range of concerns, including:
Your provider will explain what your results mean and discuss any next steps for your care.


For an EEG, a technician places small sensors on your scalp, and you relax while the recording is taken. You may be asked to breathe deeply or look at a flashing light for short periods, which can help reveal certain patterns.
The test is painless and there is no downtime afterward. Your neurologist will walk you through what to expect so you feel comfortable throughout.
