Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An EEG (electroencephalogram) can detect abnormal electrical activity in the brain, which could indicate the presence of a tumor. However, an EEG cannot directly locate the tumor, so further testing would be needed if abnormalities are detected. B) EKG (electrocardiogram) is not relevant as it measures the electrical activity of the heart, not the brain. C) IQ tests do not have any relevance in detecting tumors. D) Brain lesioning is a surgical procedure where a small lesion is made in a specific area of the brain to treat certain conditions, but it is not used for diagnosing tumors.
