How results are used
Diagnostic results are interpreted in correlation with clinical history, developmental timeline, and symptoms. A diagnostic report by itself does not confirm a complete care plan.

Interpretation by a DM-trained Pediatric Neurologist ensures subtle anomalies are identified accurately, preventing misdiagnosis of non-epileptic mimics.
Where is the test available?
The equipment is located in our Kurnool clinic. We coordinate schedules for families from Mahbubnagar to complete tests and receive reports on the same day.
