epilepsy evaluation

Epilepsy evaluation involves a series of tests and assessments to diagnose the condition and understand its causes. This typically includes a detailed medical history, a neurological examination, and often an electroencephalogram (EEG) to measure brain activity. Imaging tests like MRI or CT scans may also be used to identify any underlying issues. The goal is to determine the type of seizures a person experiences and to develop an appropriate treatment plan to manage the condition effectively. Regular follow-up is essential to monitor progress and adjust treatments as needed.
