Mesa, AZ , Dec. 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Steward Health Care is the first hospital system in Arizona to use Zeto EEG technology – the first true dry electrode EEG system cleared for clinical use by the FDA. Both Mountain Vista Medical Center and Tempe St. Lukes now offer Zeto EEG headsets for routine EEG, one of the main diagnostic tests for epilepsy and other brain disorders.
