Слайд 4How Is Encephalitis Diagnosed


Слайд 5In this test, your doctor will collect a sample of spinal

fluid and test it for signs of infection

Spinal Tap or Lumbar Puncture


Слайд 6These tests detect changes in brain structure. They can rule out

other possible explanations for symptoms, such as a tumor or stroke.

Brain Imaging with CT Scan or MRI


Слайд 7An EEG uses electrodes (small metal discs with wires) attached to

the scalp to record brain activity.

Electroencephalograph (EEG)



Слайд 8A blood test can reveal signs of a viral infection.
Blood Tests


Слайд 9In a brain biopsy, your doctor will remove small samples of

brain tissue to test for infection. This procedure is rarely performed because there’s a high risk of complications. It’s usually only done if doctors can’t determine the cause the brain swelling or if treatment isn’t working.

Brain Biopsy


Слайд 10How Is Encephalitis Treated?
Anti-viral medications can help treat herpes encephalitis. However,

they aren’t effective in treating other forms of encephalitis. Instead, treatment often focuses on relieving symptoms. These treatments may include:
rest
pain killers
corticosteroids (to reduce brain inflammation)
mechanical ventilation (to help with breathing)
anticonvulsants (to prevent or stop seizures)
sedatives (for restlessness, aggressiveness, and irritability)
