Patient's question:
How can you check if your baby has infantile spasms? Are there other tests before an EEG and CT scan?Doctor's answer:
Based on the described situation, a preliminary analysis is needed to determine whether the child has infantile spasms. This requires a detailed neurological examination and the combination of relevant clinical symptoms, but these are not sufficient for a definitive diagnosis. Additional tests, such as CT scans and electroencephalograms (EEGs), from relevant laboratory examinations are also necessary.Advice: Based on the described situation, a preliminary analysis is needed to determine whether the child has infantile spasms.
