Neurology
Neurology is a branch of medicine that deals with the study and diagnosis of disorders of the brain and nervous system. Neurologists are trained to diagnose, treat, and manage neurological conditions.
It can be divided into many sub-specialties, but essentially it studies the function and diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves and muscles.
The interest in neurology has grown exponentially in recent years because of new developments in research technologies as well as treatments for neurological illnesses.
Neurologists serve two major functions:
1) to study how diseases affect central and peripheral nervous systems and what happens when these systems are damaged or impaired, which helps to determine appropriate treatment,
2) to help diagnose various neurological conditions.
Why should you see a neurologist?
Neurologists specialize in the nervous system and can diagnose a person with neurological diseases. Seeing one is more important than you may think, and early detection is vital. A neurologist will be able to identify the root cause of your symptoms and can even help you find a solution to your problem. They are skilled in identifying problems with the nervous system. They can also offer you with solutions and treatment options that help improve neurological function.
Neurologists are medical doctors who specialize in the neurological system and have completed five years of medical school (MBBS training), followed by a three years post- graduate degree in medicine (MD Medicine) plus an additional three years of super- speciality training in Neurology (DM Neurology). They are specially trained to diagnose patients with neurological conditions and provide them with treatments to help relieve pain and improve quality of life.
A neurologist has a wide variety of tools available for diagnosis, all developed specifically for use in diagnosing neurological conditions as well as monitoring a person’s progress during treatment. Some common tests include: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, electroencephalograms (EEGs), electrocardiograms (ECGs), or nerve conduction study/ electromyography (NCS/EMG).
