Neurology
A neurologist is a board-certified medical physician who has trained in the
diagnosis and treatment of nervous system disorders, including diseases
of the brain, spinal cord, and muscles. Neurologists perform examinations
of the nerves of the head and neck; muscle strength and movement; and
sensation, memory, speech, language and other cognitive abilities. Some
of the types of tests performed by neurologists include:
- CAT Scan (computed axial tomography)
- MRI/MRA (magnetic resonance imaging/magnetic resonance angiography)
- Lumbar puncture (spinal tap)
- EEG (electroencephalography)
- EMG/NCV (electromyography/nerve conduction velocity)
