Overview:
Neurodiagnostic technologists (EEG Technician) use specialized equipment to monitor how well a patient’s nervous system is functioning, so doctors can identify and treat neurological problems. Neurodiagnostic technologists receive extensive training in neurophysiology, so they can identify normal and abnormal electrical activity in the central, nervous, autonomic and peripheral nervous systems. By recording electrical patterns throughout these systems, neurodiagnostic technologists provide valuable data that a physician will use to diagnose and treat conditions such as headaches, dizziness, seizure disorders, strokes and degenerative brain disease.

- Experience: Must be skilled or have a general knowledge of neurodiagnostic testing. Prior healthcare experience working in the acute care setting preferred. Must be able to interact with patients to ensure reliable results. Must understand or be capable of learning the effects of anesthesia on EEG results and be able to interpret visual data. EEG technicians must be prepared to apply their skills in stressful settings, such as operating or emergency rooms, if need be.
