Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is an EEG test used for?

An EEG (Electroencephalography) is used to measure electrical activity in the brain. It helps diagnose conditions such as epilepsy, seizures, sleep disorders, brain infections, head injuries, and other neurological abnormalities.

2. Is an EEG test painful?

No, an EEG is completely painless and non-invasive. The electrodes placed on your scalp only record brain activity—they do not send electricity into your body.

3. How long does an EEG take?

A routine EEG usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes. In some cases, longer monitoring (such as video EEG or sleep EEG) may be recommended.

4. How should I prepare for an EEG?

Wash your hair the night before the test (do not use oil, conditioner, or hair spray).
Avoid caffeine for several hours before the test.
Continue taking medications unless your doctor advises otherwise.
Follow any specific instructions given by your neurologist.

5. Are there any risks associated with EEG?

EEG is very safe. In rare cases, flashing lights or deep breathing during the test may trigger a seizure in patients with epilepsy, but the procedure is performed under medical supervision.
