Overview

Understanding brain activity is essential for diagnosing a range of neurological conditions. At Mahanandan Super Speciality Hospital, our Electroencephalogram (EEG) services offer precise monitoring of brain electrical activity, helping doctors detect abnormalities early. With skilled technicians, modern EEG technology, and a compassionate approach, we ensure an accurate, safe, and comfortable diagnostic experience for every patient.

What is an EEG?

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a non-invasive test that records electrical activity in the brain using small electrodes placed on the scalp. It helps detect abnormal patterns that may indicate seizures, epilepsy, brain injury, sleep disorders, or other neurological conditions.

• Diagnosis and monitoring of epilepsy and seizure disorders
• Evaluation of brain injuries, tumors, and inflammation
• Assessment of sleep-related disorders and altered mental states

EEG testing is completely painless and plays a crucial role in both emergency and routine neurological evaluations.

When is an EEG Recommended?

Your doctor may recommend an EEG if you are experiencing unexplained neurological symptoms or require monitoring for known conditions. It offers real-time insights into brain function, helping tailor accurate treatments.

• Unexplained seizures or convulsions
• Unconsciousness or altered mental awareness
• Head injuries or post-stroke evaluations

EEGs are also useful in critical care settings to monitor brain activity in patients under sedation or with severe neurological issues.

Preparing for an EEG Test

Preparation is simple, and our team provides complete instructions to ensure an accurate and smooth testing experience. Certain precautions help improve test quality and reduce external interference during the recording.

• Wash hair before the test — avoid hair oils or styling products
• Avoid caffeine on the day of the test (unless advised otherwise)
• Continue regular medications unless instructed by your doctor

During the test, you will lie comfortably while electrodes record brain signals under resting conditions or with specific stimuli such as flashing lights or deep breathing exercises.
