Both measure electrical activity -- the ECG in the heart and the EEG in the brain.
An EEG is an electroencephalogram and an ECG also known as an EKG is an electrocardiogram. An EEG records brainwave/electrical activity. An ECG records the electrical activity that the heart produces.

Can EEG confirm infarction?
EEG cannot confirm infarction, Only MRI CAN CONFIRM INFARCTION. EEG can only confirm epilepsy cidpusa.org
Can a person with a VNS stimulator have an EEG?
yer but they can not have a MRI scan
What tools are used to test human brain capacity?
EEG, functional MRI
MRI to rule out seizure and lesional overt epilepsy?
MRI, CAT and EEG are ways of scanning the brain. An MRI scan could possibly help. You need to talk to a doctor.
What tests are used to diagnose epilepsy?
The most common diagnostic test is the EEG or electro encephalogram.
A 10 years old boy was diagnostic with epilepsy after his EEG test but normal in his MRI test Does he has epilepsy?
There are many reasons why an EEG and MRI Scan will show different results. They are different kinds of test that look for different things. Talk to your doctor about this.
Which is more useful mri or eeg?
An EEG is for measuring the electrical activity of the brain and how it responds to stimuli. An MRI scan is more like an x-ray. It is for examining the physical structure of parts of the body. There is no saying which is more correct as they are measuring different things.
Does an EEG show brain tumor?
Only a MRI can tell for sure
Can you have seizures from a head injury seizures that dont show up on an eeg?
Yes, it is quite common for those who have Partial Epilepsy for EEG's and MRI's to be clear as the section is not thin enough or only a small part of the brain is affected.
What are four common diagnostic test for disorders of the nervous system?
CT/CAT scan, electroencephalogram (EEG), MRI and PET scan
What test would be used to study cognitive brain activity?
Brain imaging techniques such as fMRI or EEG can be used to study cognitive brain activity by measuring neuronal activity in different regions of the brain while participants engage in cognitive tasks. These techniques provide valuable insights into how different cognitive processes are carried out in the brain.
What does a venous angioma int he right frontal lobe without hemorrhage mean?
It means you have a vein malformation. I suffered my first seizure ever three days ago. Admitted to hospital, MRI with contrast and EEG showed my venous angioma is in the frontal lobe of my brain. I am now on anti-seizure medication and will have a new MRI and EEG every three months to make sure there are no changes.
