Neuromyelitis Optica UK Highly Specialised Service

What are Highly Specialised Services?

Specialised services support people with a range of rare and complex conditions. They often involve treatments provided to patients with rare cancers, genetic disorders or complex medical or surgical conditions. They deliver cutting-edge care and are a catalyst for innovation, supporting pioneering clinical practice in the NHS

The NHS England Specialised Services in the UK has acknowledged NMOSD as a rare neurological condition that requires specialist expertise and has funded Walton Centre Foundation Trust in Liverpool and John Radcliffe Hospital at Oxford.

These two centres have developed a UK diagnostic and advisory service, do active research and  collaborate with national and international groups working on NMOSD to raise awareness
