What is EEG, and what can it tell us?

EEG, or electroencephalography, is a non-invasive medical procedure that records electrical activity in the brain. EEG can provide valuable insights into brain function, helping to identify patterns associated with various mental states and serving as a crucial diagnostic tool for screening for abnormalities such as epileptic seizures, potential aneurysms, and other neurological disorders. By analyzing the electrical activity in the brain, EEG enables early detection and intervention, contributing to more effective and timely medical care.
