Seizures are usually first suspected based on the patient’s or family member’s self-reports and medical history. A healthcare provider must perform a full clinical assessment to rule out other potential causes of seizures as well as other medical conditions that present as seizures.[1][2] Diagnostic tests which measure electrical activity in the brain, such as electroencephalography (EEG), are commonly used to diagnose epilepsy; other tests, such as computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), may be used to detect structural abnormalities that can contribute to seizures (e.g., tumors).[3][2]
