Patient's question:
The child in my sister's family is now two years old, but still cannot walk or talk. We are all suspicious that the child has a problem, and the doctor has consulted and said it might be cerebral palsy. I would like to ask, what are the diagnostic tests for pediatric cerebral palsy? What are the diagnostic tests for pediatric cerebral palsy?Doctor's answer:
2 years old, cannot walk, cannot talk. Some children may develop language functions later, so motor functions should be developed. It is best to have a medical examination at the hospital.1. For children with cerebral palsy, electrodiagnostic electroencephalography shows a higher incidence of epilepsy, so routine electroencephalography should be performed to rule out complications. Evoked potential, electroencephalography topography, brain magnetic resonance imaging, electromyography
2. Image diagnosis: brain CT, MRT examination
3. Laboratory diagnosis
