===== Summary =====
An **electroencephalogram** or **EEG** is a result of the neurophysiologic measurement of the electrical activity of the brain by recording from electrodes placed on the scalp, or in the special cases on the cortex.  It represents so-called "brainwaves".  It is used to assess brain damage, epilepsy and other problems. In some jurisdictions it is used to assess brain death. EEG can also be used in conjunction with other types of brain imaging.
