It has a specialized inpatient unit, a specialized outpatient clinic, and an electrophysiology room. The specialty is a diagnosis and treatment team composed of medical professionals with a background in pediatric neurology and professional training, with extensive clinical experience in diagnosing and treating various pediatric nervous system diseases. It also has a pediatric epilepsy clinic to provide professional consultation services for the many children with epilepsy. The department is equipped with video electroencephalography machines, electromyography machines, evoked-potential instruments, transcranial Doppler ultrasound machines, and other diagnostic and treatment equipment. The specialized neurology laboratory is fully equipped technically and can conduct multiple specialized neurological tests. Diagnosis and treatment of nervous system-related diseases can be completed in one stop. Scope of diagnosis and treatment: includes common neurological diseases such as febrile seizures, epilepsy, myasthenia gravis, bacterial meningitis, viral encephalitis, autoimmune encephalitis, neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders, Guillain–Barré syndrome, acute cerebellar ataxia, tic disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, acute necrotizing encephalopathy, etc.; as well as various common nervous system-related symptoms and abnormalities such as limb shaking, limb weakness, unsteady gait, abnormal movements, ptosis, headache and dizziness, sleep abnormalities, developmental abnormalities/regression, and abnormalities on EEG and cranial imaging, etc. Specialized services: video EEG, EMG, visual evoked potentials, auditory evoked potentials, somatosensory evoked potentials, transcranial Doppler ultrasound, intrathecal injection, lumbar puncture and cerebrospinal fluid-related tests (routine, biochemical, pathogen, inflammatory factor, and brain injury-related marker testing), and blood concentration testing for commonly used anti-epileptic medications. Team members: Chief Physician Liu Fang: specializes in unexplained convulsions (shaking), limb weakness, abnormal movements, ptosis, dizziness and headache, sleep abnormalities, developmental abnormalities/regression, encephalitis, meningitis, tic disorder, ADHD, and EEG and cranial imaging abnormalities, etc. Attending Physician Pei Zheng: specializes in epilepsy, investigation of the cause of muscle weakness, investigation of the cause of infant shaking, headache, intracranial infections, immune-mediated diseases of the nervous system, consultation on imaging abnormalities in fetuses and infants/young children, interpretation of neuroimaging, etc. Attending Physician Xiao Huimei: specializes in intracranial infections, movement disorders, autoimmune encephalitis, epilepsy, myasthenia gravis, cerebral white matter diseases, febrile seizures, dizziness and headache, ADHD, tic disorder, etc. Attending Physician Wang Lingan: specializes in epilepsy, unexplained convulsions, neuromuscular diseases (spinal muscular atrophy, muscle weakness, muscular dystrophy, etc.), immune-mediated diseases of the central nervous system, various types of encephalitis, meningitis, headache, dizziness, fetal developmental abnormalities, etc. Attending Physician Li Biyun: specializes in autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system (unexplained developmental regression, involuntary movements, unsteady gait, personality changes, sudden-onset convulsions, limb weakness, etc.), myasthenia gravis, epilepsy, purulent meningitis, viral encephalitis, tic disorder, etc. Physician Wen Yongxin: specializes in extrapyramidal diseases such as dystonia, neurogenetic and metabolic diseases, and hereditary neurological diseases in children. Physician Miao Qinfei: specializes in pediatric nervous system diseases such as epilepsy, encephalitis, and neuromuscular diseases. Supervising Technologist Zeng Liuyuan: specializes in operating neuroelectrophysiological instruments and interpreting EEG and EMG.
