How are Neurological Disorders Diagnosed in Children?
Diagnosing neurological disorders in children involves a combination of medical history, physical examination, and specialized tests. Pediatric neurologists may use imaging techniques such as MRI or CT scans to visualize the brain's structure. Electroencephalograms (EEG) are used to assess electrical activity in the brain, particularly in cases of epilepsy. Genetic testing and developmental assessments may also be conducted to identify specific conditions.
