The Neurology department at the Children's Neuroscience Center is dedicated to providing the highest level of care to patients with disorders of the nervous system while combining quality care with the most advanced technology.
Our state-of-the-art brain scanners are equipped with software that provides sophisticated computational analysis. Onsite sedation is available with care provided by specially trained pediatric anesthesiologists and pediatric nurses. In addition to MRI and CT, we use advanced noninvasive technology such as magnetoencephalography (MEG) to locate the source of epileptic seizures and map brain activity. This helps determine strategies to minimize risks for children with brain tumors.
At Children's Memorial Hermann Hospital, neurologists bring special expertise to our patients through a broad range of diagnostic and treatment services for children with complex health problems.
