Electroencephalogram (EEG) or electroencephalography.

How it's used

Clinical and scientific terminology like this is often borrowed directly from written Chinese, but in spoken Cantonese, it is common to add a classifier like 幅 or 張 to make it sound more natural when discussing the physical printout or digital image. It functions exactly like its English counterpart in medical contexts, though it is rarely used outside of professional or health-related discussions.
