title: The functions and the training of a paediatric neurologist.
abstract: A total of 2018 office referrals of children with neurological problems is compared with 635 adult neurological referrals in the same Canadian city. Data of children and adults admitted to hospital with neurological problems are also compared. It is suggested that the different types of caseload encountered justify changes in the training programs for paediatric neurologists.
