A classic and popular tool used to relate mental and neural activity is the electroencephalogram (EEG), a technique using amplified electrodes on a person's scalp to measure voltage changes in different parts of the brain.
An electroencephalogram (EEG) to look for abnormal patterns of brain waves and neuroimaging ( CT scan or MRI ) to look at the structure of the brain are also usually part of the workup.
Diagnosis An EEG can aid in locating the focus of the epileptic seizure.
Diagnosis Diagnosis is based on the clinical picture including history and EEG findings.
During each of these three periods, EEG data were collected for information on the rats' sleep stages.
Each plot shows 20 seconds of data, with a hippocampal EEG trace at the top, spike rasters from 40 simultaneously recorded CA1 pyramidal cells in the middle (each raster line represents a different cell), and a plot of running speed at the bottom.
