Definition (NCI)
|
The neurophysiologic exploration of the electrical activity of the brain by the application of electrodes to the scalp. The resulting traces are known as an electroencephalogram (EEG). This test is used to assess brain damage, epilepsy and other problems.
|
Definition (NCI_CDISC)
|
A technique used to capture and record spontaneous electrical activity of the brain by the application of electrodes to the scalp.
|
Definition (NCI_NCI-GLOSS)
|
A recording of electrical activity in the brain. It is made by placing electrodes on the scalp (the skin covering the top of the head), and impulses are sent to a special machine. An EEG may be used to diagnose brain and sleep disorders.
|
Definition (MSH)
|
Recording of electric currents developed in the brain by means of electrodes applied to the scalp, to the surface of the brain, or placed within the substance of the brain.
|
Definition (PSY)
|
Method of graphically recording the electrical activity (potentials) of the brain by means of intracranial electrodes or electrodes applied to the scalp. Used both for the method as well as the resulting electroencephalogram or the electrophysiological activity itself.
|
Definition (CSP)
|
recording of electric currents developed in the brain, by means of electrodes applied to the scalp or the brain.
