Is there radiation when doing an EEG? Will my child feel pain?

Normal brain cells in the human body have spontaneous bioelectric activity, and the activity of brain cells produces electrical currents, so the brain is like a "power plant". EEG is a curve presented by using a special electronic instrument to amplify the weak current of the brain into millions of times the post-tracing record. This is somewhat similar to an electrocardiogram, except that the time and location are different, and the EEG itself does not produce electron radiation, nor does it have radioactive radiation. If there is an abnormality in brain function, the EEG may appear in a variety of different forms of abnormalities. No matter how experienced the expert, the doctor's diagnosis needs to have an accurate basis, and capturing the brain waves at the moment of the attack and the child's immediate performance is an important part of the doctor's accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Therefore, EEG can help doctors diagnose the condition, judge the effect of treatment and prognosis, and is an irreplaceable "safe, non-traumatic, painless" examination method.

The electrocardiogram is to collect the electrical signal of the heart, and the electroencephalogram is to collect the electrical signal in the brain, not to power the brain, so there is no radiation, the child will not be electrocuted, there is no discomfort.
