Epilepsy Studies

At Brisbane Clinical Neuroscience Centre (BCNC), we offer a specialised epilepsy consultative service alongside a comprehensive EEG diagnostic service.

Our team provides thorough assessments and individualised treatment options for patients with epilepsy, including those who require specialist care or have not achieved full seizure control.

This clinic also provides rapid assessment and treatment of patients following their first suspected seizure. First seizure patients referred from a GP will be seen within 4 weeks and during the consultation will be counselled about seizure precautions and driving restrictions.

Our Approach to Epilepsy and Seizures

We believe seizures are only one part of epilepsy, with psychological and social factors affecting day-to-day life much more than most people think. We understand that each patient’s experience with epilepsy is unique, and treatment must be tailored to individual needs. 

Our clinic provides:

  • Comprehensive epilepsy assessments
  • Expert review of treatment options
  • Counselling on seizure precautions & driving restrictions

Reminder: If you have experienced a first seizure, early assessment is important. GP-referred patients will be seen within four weeks for a thorough evaluation.

EEG Studies for Epilepsy Diagnosis

Electroencephalography (EEG) is a key tool in epilepsy assessment, allowing neurologists to:

  • Identify abnormal brain activity associated with seizures.
  • Differentiate epileptic seizures from other conditions (e.g., fainting, functional seizures).
  • Monitor treatment response in epilepsy management.
