Neural Recording
Neural Recording, such as that done by electroencephalogram (EEG), is performed to measure activity in the brain by monitoring neurons. To perform neural recording, sensors are attached to the scalp where they monitor electrical signals produced by the brain. A machine records the electrical signals which can be reviewed by a healthcare professional to diagnosis injury, illness, and disease.
