The diagnosis of seizures and seizure mimics relies primarily on the history, but history has well-known limitations. Video recordings of events are a powerful extension of the history because they allow neurologists to view the events in question. In addition, they are readily available in situation, whereas the gold standard of EEG-video is not. That includes underserved or rural areas, and events that are too infrequent to be captured during a few days of EEG-video monitoring. Brief cellphone videos have been shown to be valuable to suggest or guide the correct diagnosis.

独立视频在癫痫发作诊断中的作用

癫痫发作和类似癫痫发作的诊断主要依赖于病史，但病史有众所周知的局限性。事件的视频记录是历史的有力延伸，因为它们允许神经科医生查看相关事件。此外，它们在实际情况下很容易获得，而脑电图视频的黄金标准则不然。这包括服务欠缺或农村地区，以及在几天的脑电图视频监测中无法捕捉到的事件。简短的手机视频已被证明对于建议或指导正确的诊断很有价值。
