EEG is the most important examination method for the diagnosis of epilepsy and following clinical findings in epileptic patients. This method reflects the current functional status of the brain rather than the structural features. Therefore, despite the improvements in structural imaging methods (such as CT, MRI), it still remains important. The importance of EEG is further increased, especially in the absence of a pathological finding reflected in the structural examination methods.
How is shooting done?
EEG can be performed while the patient is awake or asleep. During the shooting, it is sufficient for the patient to remain calm and immobile for a while. During shooting, three-minute hyperventilation (fast and deep breathing), phantom stimulation (bright light at certain intervals and intervals) and eye opening and closing are done. These processes are known as activation methods.
