Mediation and Patients’ Rights
Law of 22 August 2002 The Patients’ Rights mediator can be contacted by the patient and/or their legal representative for any question or complaint concerning the exercising of these rights. If you consider that any of your rights as a patient have not been respected, whether during a period of hospitalisation or as an outpatient, you are advised, initially, to contact directly the healthcare professional in question so as to resolve the disagreement.If this attempt fails, you and/or your legal representative can have recourse free of charge to  the mediation service, whose role is to promote communication between you and the healthcare professional. The mediator acts in accordance with the legal provisions, in complete independence, impartiality and neutrality.The mediator is neither an arbiter who decides nor a judge who designates a guilty party. The mediator is bound by the law of professional secrecy, guarantees the confidentiality of exchanges and cannot inform other persons of the complaint made by the patient or the patient’s representative .  If the mediation process fails to meet with satisfaction, the mediator is legally bound  to inform the patient of other possible recourses open to them with a view to settling the complaint. Consult the brochure ‘Rights and obligations of the  patient’ and the Internal Regulations regarding the mediation function. You can contact the mediation service: By email: mediation-ombudsdienst [dot] erasme [at] hubruxelles [dot] be (mediation-ombudsdienst[dot]erasme[at]hubruxelles[dot]be)By phone: 02 555 44 91Via the contact form below. Please complete the form as precisely as possible so that the mediation request can be dealt with  quickly and effectively. In submitting this form you agree to the information provided being used by the Brussels University Hospital (HUB) to process your request, in accordance with the site’s confidentiality policy. The information given below is transferred automatically to our hospital’s Mediation Service.  Contact form: Request for mediation Site concerned by the facts: Erasmus Hospital HUDERF – Queen Fabiola Children’s University Hospital Jules Bordet Institute CTR – Trauma and Rehabilitation Centre CRG – Geriatric Rehabilitation Centre Lothier Polyclinic Your details: Last name First name Date of birth Telephone E-mail Patient’s file no.

Translational neuroimaging
Our role The H.U.B’s Neuroimaging Department is equipped with two high-tech devices that enable us to map and study the functioning of the brain.  « Our principal activity is research », explains Professor Xavier De Tiège, head of the department. « It is ‘translational’ in the sense that we aim to bring the results of our research to clinical practice, for the benefit of patients ». Image Image The H.U.B’s Neuroimaging Department cooperates regularly with Neurosurgery, ENT, Radiology, la radiologie, Child Psychiatry, etc.To get more info about the service : SecMed [dot] MedNuc [dot] erasme [at] hubruxelles [dot] be (SecMed[dot]MedNuc[dot]erasme[at]hubruxelles[dot]be). Our specialities The H.U.B’s Translational Neuroimaging Department has two leading edge technologies: Magnetoencephalography (MEG) records brain activity in a totally non-invasive way to a high degree of precision in terms of time (millisecond) and space (a few mm).  MEG has 2 clinically recognised indications:  to precisely pinpoint the epileptic source to be operated on in the case of refractory epilepsy;   to precisely locate functionally important areas of the brain  (for language, mobility, vision, etc.) in relation to a brain tumour or lesion that has to be operated on.   The department also contributes internationally to developing the MEG of the future based on a new sensor technology  known as optical pumping magnetometers. This MEG system can be fitted directly to the scalp  and offers a precision that is superior to the present system.   PET-MRI is a technology that combines magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a  PET-Scan. It makes it possible to visualise the brain’s anatomy and functioning simultaneously. It is very useful for studying the brain’s structure and functioning in the case of brain tumours, multiple sclerosis, cognitive disorders  such as Alzheimer’s, certain learning difficulties in children, autism spectrum disorders, etc.    Our team Image Our specialists Research The functional neuroimaging platform at the ULB – of which the Translational Neuroimaging Department and the Neuroanatomy and Neuroimaging Laboratory  (LN2T) headed by Professor Xavier De Tiège are a part – enables researchers from the ULB’s Institute of Neurosciences, together with other Belgian laboratories and universities, to have access to MEG  and PET-MR technology. Within the ULB itself, research relating to these two devices concentrates on its sensomotor, language and cognitive functions. It is a question of studying how and to what degree certain brain diseases (epilepsy, tumours, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis) affect these major brain functions.
