In our latest podcast episode, we delve into the fascinating world of brain waves and neurological diagnostics with Dr. Syed Shabbir, Director of Epilepsy and Medical Director of the EEG Lab at Medstar Franklin Square Medical Center. Hosted by Debra Schindler, this episode sheds light on the complexities of the human brain and the critical role of electroencephalograms (EEGs) in diagnosing and treating neurological disorders.
The human brain is an intricate organ, constantly firing neurons and generating electrical activity known as brain waves. These brain waves can be measured using EEGs, a non-invasive method that records macroscopic electroactivity in the brain. Dr. Shabbir explains that EEGs are essential for diagnosing conditions like epilepsy, where abnormal electrical activity can lead to seizures.
Dr. Shabbir shares his expertise on how EEGs are conducted, the importance of sleep in detecting abnormalities, and the difference between epileptic and non-epileptic seizures. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in neurology and brain health.
