It allows healthcare providers to prepare a patient for an EEG exam quickly, eliminating the existing, time-consuming task of measuring and placing electrodes on the patient’s head.
The device features 22 pre-gelled electrodes and 19 active channels, with fixed electrode placement according to the international ten to 20 system.
NeuroCap also has a disposable and single-use EEG headset, which reduces cross-contamination between patients as well as the risk of hospital-acquired infections.
The device has also received 510k clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Brain Scientific chairman and CEO Hassan Kotob said: “Our neurology products are accelerating access to EEG testing both in hospitals and in the field.
“The CE mark is a vital step forward as we increase our market penetration in Europe.”
The NeuroCap device is available in four sizes, ranging from paediatric extra-small to adult large.
To determine the correct NeuroCap size, any healthcare worker can measure the circumference of a patient’s head.
Additionally, Brain Scientific has developed NeuroEEG, a 21-channel, portable amplifier.
The device acquires, records and displays the electrical brain activity of a patient on a PC or laptop.
