Profile

Since 2000 the Department of Neurology has participated in numerous international studies on new drugs used in the treatment of epilepsy, stroke, Parkinson’s disease, and multiple sclerosis. The studies conducted allowed the doctors working at the Department of Neurology to participate in numerous training courses abroad and present their own achievements during scientific conferences, both in Poland and abroad.
The Division of Clinical Neurophysiology, thanks to the state-of-the-art equipment, performs the following neurophysiological examinations: evoked potentials, electromyography (EMG, SFEMG), electroencephalography (EEG, mapping, 24-hour EEG recording, video EEG).
Presently the scientific research of the Department of Neurology is focused on the participation in international research programmes concerning the introduction of new drugs to treat multiple sclerosis, including evaluation of current drugs which modify the course of this disease as part of the therapy, evaluation of the risk of atheromatosis in the course of ischaemic brain disease and evaluation of the efficacy of new drugs used in the treatment of dementia syndrome, Parkinson's disease and acquired neuropathies.
