Video EEG
Video EEG (Video Electroencephalography) is an advanced test that records brain activity (EEG) along with continuous video monitoring of the patient. This helps doctors study brain waves during seizures or blackout spells to accurately diagnose neurological disorders.
Why is Video EEG Done?
- To confirm diagnosis of epilepsy
- To differentiate between seizures and non-epileptic events
- To identify the type of epilepsy (focal or generalized)
- To localize the seizure focus in the brain
- To guide treatment or surgical planning for epilepsy
- To study unexplained blackouts, fainting, or spells
How the Test is Performed?
Electrodes are attached to the scalp to measure brain wave patterns while a video camera records the patient’s behavior and body movements. This combined information gives a clear picture of seizure activity and its correlation with EEG changes.
Benefits of Video EEG
- Accurate diagnosis of epilepsy vs. non-epileptic seizures
- Prevents unnecessary long-term medication use
- Helps in customizing treatment for better seizure control
- Guides decision for epilepsy surgery if needed
