Video EEG
A video EEG (electroencephalograph) records what you are doing or experiencing on video tape while an EEG test records your brainwaves. The purpose is to be able to see what is happening when you have a seizure or event and compare the picture to what the EEG records at the same time.
EMG / NCS Test
EMG/NCS stands for electromyogram and nerve conduction studies. And this is an electrical test of your nerves and muscles. The purpose of the test is to localize where your symptoms are coming from.
SSEP
This safe test evaluates the sensory pathway as an electrical signal travels from the nerve endings in the arms and/or legs to the brain. The SSEP test monitors the nerve pathways that are responsible for feeling pressure, touch, temperature and pain.
VEP
A visual evoked potential is an evoked potential caused by a visual stimulus, such as an alternating checkerboard pattern on a computer screen. The VEP is an important test that is very good at detecting problems with the optic nerve and lesions in the anterior part of our visual pathway, before the optic nerves merge.
