Body

The St. Charles Health System Neurodiagnostics Lab provides a wide range of services aimed at evaluating and monitoring nervous system function and diagnosing neurological disorders. We serve patients who have suffered strokes as well as those with other neurological conditions and diseases including epilepsy, brain tumors and dementia.

Neurodiagnostic Services

We offer convenient access to many neurodiagnostic procedures including:

  • Electroencephalogram (EEG)
  • Long-term monitoring
  • Intraoperative neuromonitoring
  • Evoked potential studies

Our Neurodiagnostics Team

Patients need to be referred to our lab by their physician for monitoring and testing. Once here, they remain in good hands: Our staff include five registered EEG technologists trained to understand neurophysiology and recognize normal and abnormal electrical activity. They act as eyes and ears for the neurologists, who later review and interpret the data.

Our staff credentials also include:

The EEG technologists prepare patients for procedures, obtain medical histories, record electrical potentials and calculate the results. In addition, they provide comfort and quality care to patients whether their neurodiagnostics procedure takes 20 minutes or several hours.
