An ambulatory EEG is a long-term EEG recording performed outside of the hospital, typically in the patient’s home.

For many patients, being at home reduces stress and allows for more natural sleep and daily activity patterns. Since seizures and other neurological events often occur unpredictably, monitoring in a real-world environment can increase the likelihood of capturing typical events.

There truly is no place like home.

As neurodiagnostic technologists, encountering a patient having a seizure in the lab can vary greatly depending on the setting.

Technologists working in an Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU) may witness seizures on a daily basis. In contrast, those in outpatient EEG labs may encounter this situation far less frequently. Regardless of frequency, knowing proper seizure first aid is essential to ensuring patient safety and maintaining confidence in critical moments.

In EEG, what you see is not always what you get. One of the most important—and sometimes frustrating—skills for EEG technologists is learning to distinguish true cerebral activity from artifact. Artifacts can mimic pathological findings, obscure critical data, and lead to misinterpretation if not properly recognized. Understanding EEG artifacts is not just a technical skill—it is essential for ensuring accurate diagnosis, high-quality recordings, and patient safety. What Is an EEG Artifact?...

It’s Neurodiagnostic Week! Seriously though…I think we need a whole month : ) For many of us in this field it feels like the Best Kept Secret in Healthcare! A career where you can work in a clinic, a hospital, an operating room or even from home. How is it that such a versatile and dynamic field can have such a large national shortage of qualified staff? For those working in the field we know how interesting and rewarding it is: That wow feeling when you turn on the machine and the...

In November 2025, I experienced a health scare when I was initially told I might have multiple sclerosis (MS) . It was a moment filled with uncertainty and fear. After further evaluation, I was ultimately diagnosed with Transverse Myelitis , a condition that shares some overlapping features with MS. I woke up one morning with numbness in my saddle region, feet, and legs. Imaging revealed a lesion on my lumbar spine. Since then, I have regained some sensation, particularly in the saddle...

Trauma leaves marks that are not always visible on imaging, lab tests, or clinical exams. But on EEG, the story can be different. Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is often described in psychological terms flashbacks, hypervigilance, emotional dysregulation. Yet beneath these symptoms lies a measurable shift in brain dynamics. Increasing evidence suggests that PTSD is not just a disorder of memory or emotion, but a disorder of neural oscillations and network connectivity. For EEG...

Neurodegenerative diseases rarely announce themselves loudly. Instead, they begin quietly—through subtle cognitive changes, mild motor shifts, or barely noticeable alterations in brain rhythms.

For EEG technologists, those changes are often visible long before they become clinically obvious.

Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease have traditionally been diagnosed through clinical evaluation and imaging. However, EEG is emerging as a tool for early detection, monitoring, & discovery.

Epilepsy is not a single story—it is a collection of many, each written by the brain. When people hear the word epilepsy, they often imagine one type of seizure: dramatic shaking, sudden collapse, and loss of control. In reality, epilepsy is a broad group of neurological disorders known as epilepsy syndromes, each with distinct seizure types, EEG patterns, triggers, and long-term considerations.

For decades, anesthesiology has relied on vital signs, reflexes, and clinical observation to estimate depth of anesthesia. Changes in heart rate, blood pressure, or movement have long guided intraoperative decisions. But these outward signs reflect indirect physiologic responses—not what is actually happening in the brain.

Beneath the surface, cortical activity is far more complex.

EEG-guided anesthesia provides a direct window into that complexity. By monitoring brain activity in real time, clinicians can more precisely assess and control levels of consciousness during surgery. For EEG technologists, this shift represents more than a technological upgrade—it marks a growing intersection between clinical neurophysiology and perioperative medicine.
