The Saskatchewan Epilepsy Program is a comprehensive program that cares for
adult and pediatric patients with epilepsy. In-patient and out-patient services
are located at Royal University Hospital (RUH) where there is a dedicated bed
for telemetry.
The RUH also has a 1.5 Tesla MRI for high resolution epilepsy studies used in
the pre-surgical work up. Brain surgeries, WADA tests, motor and speech mapping
and vagus nerve stimulation are also performed here, ensuring comprehensive care
for those with epilepsy.
