Neurologic problems assessed with EPs include those associated with brain tumor, spinal cord injury, and demyelinating types of diseases, such as multiple sclerosis. An EEG records the electrical activity of the brain with sensitive electronic equipment from recording electrodes that are placed at measured intervals on the persons scalp. EEGs assist physicians in the diagnosis in a variety of neurological problems from headaches and dizziness to seizure disorders, strokes, and degenerative brain disease. All neurophysiology services are performed at Nebraska Health System - University Hospital for both inpatients and outpatients. Testing is performed on all age groups.
Appointments are accepted by referring physicians and advanced scheduling is required.
Services are available Monday-Friday during regular business hours. For detailed information about education, board certification, clinical expertise, special interests, employment opportunities, or to contact any of the Neurology faculty members click on the Neuro menu.
