An EEG (electroencephalogram) is a test that records electrical activity in the brain using electrodes attached to the scalp. It is a common diagnostic tool for identifying epilepsy and other neurological conditions that involve abnormal brain wave patterns. MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) and CT scan (computed tomography) are imaging tests that provide detailed pictures of the brain but do not directly measure brain function or activity. Ablation is a treatment procedure that involves removing or destroying tissue, often used to treat certain types of epilepsy, but it is not a diagnostic test.
