Electroencephalogram (EEG) -

Provides valuable information about headaches, seizure, and other puzzling problems.

EEG is also used to evaluate:

	infections of the nervous system
	strokes
	tumors
	growth and development of the brain in babies and children.

EEGs are often done during surgery on the arteries of the neck to make sure there is enough blood flow to the brain.
