They also evaluate the diagnostic tests to know the exact underlying conditions and accordingly proceed with the treatment.

A neurosurgeon will recommend you one or more diagnostic tests before and during consultation in order to find out the case of the condition and start the right treatment. For a complete evaluation of your condition, you have to undergo neurological examination which may include the following:

  • Physical Exam
  • Nerve conduction velocity studies/electromyography
  • CT Brain
  • Lumbar Puncture
  • Blood Tests
  • Neurological exam
