Electroencephalogram

What do we mean by electroencephalogram?

A graphic record of the electrical activity of the brain as recorded by an electroencephalograph. noun

The procedure performed to produce such a record. noun

A recording of electrical brain activity (brain waves) made by an electroencephalograph. noun

A graphical record of electrical activity of the brain; produced by an electroencephalograph noun

A recording of electrical brain activity (brain waves) made by an electroencephalograph.

An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test used to find problems related to electrical activity of the brain. An EEG tracks and records brain wave patterns. Small metal discs with thin wires (electrodes) are placed on the scalp, and then send signals to a computer to record the results. Normal electrical activity in the brain makes a recognizable pattern. Through an EEG, doctors can look for abnormal patterns that indicate seizures and other problems. Urban Dictionary
