Neurology

Neurology diagnoses, treats and cares for patients of any age with a wide variety of neurological disorders. This includes conditions which affect the brain, spine, nerves and muscles, such as epilepsy, movement disorders, dementias and other cognitive conditions, stroke and vascular brain diseases, neuro-oncology, multiple sclerosis and pain, autoimmune neurology, pediatric neurology disorders, headache, neuromuscular diseases, peripheral neuralgia, sleep disorders, and speech pathology.

Neurology offers a range of specialized electrophysiology tests to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological conditions. These tests are performed by a highly experienced and qualified team of scientists, technicians and neurologists.

Neurological diseases diagnosis and successful treatment planning may require specific electrophysiological tests such as:

  • Electroencephalogography (EEG) - Examining the electrical activity of the brain;
  • Nervous conductivity research and electrophysiology - examination of peripheral nerves and muscle electrical activity;
  • Long-term Video Monitoring (VEM) - multiple days of patient monitoring for the

detection and characterization of convulsive infections;

  • Electro-physiological examination of motion disorders (eg tremor, myoclon);
  • Bacterial toxin injection therapy during motion disruptions;
  • Visually invoked potentials (VEP) - Examination of electric properties of visual

 trajectory;

  • Somatosone-based potentials (SEP) - Examination of electrical characteristics of the

peripheral and central nervous system;

  • Quantitative sensor testing (QST) - Determination of temperature and vibration sensory threshold;
  • Study of sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system;
  • Examination of the field of vision by using a Humphrey test;

Neurology effectively and in a timely manner fights one of the most common and often lethal neurological positions – stroke, using the latest methods of treatment.The treatment method is selected by the type of stroke, its cause and the damaged area of the brain. In some cases the treatment is conservative using medicines that prevent the formation of new thrombosis and provide the breakdown of existing troombs, reducing blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
