Location: Alberta Children's Hospital
Provides pediatric electroencephalography service.An EEG test is a measurement of the electrical activity of the brain. It takes approximately 60 - 90 minutes and is performed by a technologist and then interpreted by a neurologist. The test involves the placement of electrodes on your scalp; there is no pain or discomfort involved. For outpatient appointments, we often ask children to arrive sleepy, so we can complete the study while they sleep. We ask that you arrive for your appointment with clean hair with no mousse, gels or hairspray.
