How is encephalitis diagnosed?

Patient's question:

Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. How is encephalitis diagnosed?

Doctor's answer:

The diagnosis of encephalitis requires comprehensive examination results based on the patient's clinical manifestations, electroencephalogram, imaging tests, neurological examinations, and many other aspects. If a patient has been diagnosed with encephalitis, they can be treated with medications such as diuretics to reduce edema, antipsychotics, antibiotics, and others. Patients with viral infections also require antiviral treatment.
