Elektroencefalogrammi
Elektroencefalogrammi, commonly abbreviated as EEG, is a non-invasive neurophysiological monitoring method used to record the electrical activity of the brain. It involves placing small metal discs, called electrodes, on the scalp at specific locations. These electrodes detect the tiny electrical impulses generated by brain cells, or neurons, as they communicate with each other. The signals are then amplified and recorded by a computer, which displays them as wavy lines on a screen or as a printout.
The primary use of EEG is in the diagnosis and monitoring of neurological disorders, particularly epilepsy.
The procedure is generally painless and safe. Patients typically sit or lie down comfortably while the electrodes
