Epilepsy Monitoring

Information: (520) 694-4564 or (800) 882-5845

The Epilepsy Monitoring Unit specializes in diagnosis or treatment of epilepsy and is part of the Neurodiagnostic Lab.

This unit is also part of the Arizona Comprehensive Epilepsy Program (ACEP).

By recording a patient's brain waves (EEG) during an actual seizure, the unit staff makes a more accurate diagnosis and better determines how to treat that patient's seizure disorder.

ACEP is a comprehensive approach to the disease that incorporates the knowledge and expertise of a group of specialists working together.

Highly trained monitoring technicians, registered EEG technicians, nurses, neurologists, neurosurgeons, and neurophysiologists work with the patient and their referring physician.
