The Department of Paediatric Epileptology and Sleep Medicine specialises in the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy and sleep disorders in children and adolescents. With state-of-the-art technology and an interdisciplinary team, we offer highly specialised diagnostics and treatment on an outpatient and inpatient basis.
Our team consists of experienced neuropaediatricians, epileptologists, neuropsychologists and specialists in care and neurophysiological diagnostics.
There is close collaboration with Neurosurgery UKBB, Radiology UKBB and USB as well as Nuclear Medicine. The inclusion of neuropsychology enables a comprehensive assessment of cognitive functions and behaviour in neurological disorders. This interdisciplinary collaboration ensures a holistic diagnosis and treatment of complex childhood epilepsies, in particular difficult-to-treat epilepsies, using the latest imaging techniques and specialised interventions.
