How To Prepare For Your Testing
Scheduling & Additional Information
Once we have verified your benefits and out-of-pocket costs, one of our Patient Liaisons will call you to set up your appointment and answer any questions you may have. Payment can be made when scheduling your appointment or on the day of your testing.
Day of Testing
For the day of the test, we ask that you do not take any stimulants beforehand. All other prescription medication can be taken as regularly scheduled. We also ask that you have clean hair and comfortable clothing. You may drive to and from your appointment. Please note we use a water-soluble gel on your scalp and hair as part of the set-up but can easily be washed out.
When you arrive and check in at the front desk, a technician will walk you back to one of our testing rooms to begin setup and instructions. They will place a fitted cap on your head and apply a small amount of saline gel to the scalp. From there, your technician will apply 3 EKG leads and a pulse oximeter. This test is harmless, painless, and observes your brain's activity and functioning.
The Assessment Itself
The assessment takes about 30 minutes and will record your brain's activity as you complete different tasks on the computer. After these are completed, your technician will remove the cap and provide you with something to help remove the gel from your hair. Your technician will then lead you to the front desk where you can schedule your follow up appointment which is when you will review the test results with your provider. After your follow-up appointment, you may request a copy of the results.
