Electroencephalograph Systems Market Size
Electroencephalograph Systems Market size was valued at around USD 1 Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 6.4% between 2024 and 2032. An electroencephalograph (EEG) system is a medical device designed to measure and record the electrical activity of the brain. It consists of electrodes, amplifiers, and a recording device. The electrodes are placed on the scalp, and they detect the electrical signals generated by neurons in the brain. These signals are then amplified and recorded, producing an EEG trace or waveform.
