FAQ's Related to Neurosurgeon

A neurosurgeon is a doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and surgical treatments of conditions of the central as well as the peripheral nervous system. A neurosurgeon completes special training after becoming a doctor, including one year of residency in general surgery and a few more years of residency in neurosurgery. Some neurosurgeons complete fellowship training, which is additional training to further enhance their focus within the field of neurosurgery. Neurosurgeons work both in private and public hospitals. They also see patients in a clinic or surgery. They work closely with specialists and health professionals as part of a medical team, such as a critical care team or a hospital stroke team.

You may have one or more diagnostic tests so that doctors can know the cause of your condition and make effective treatment strategies. A neurological exam or a neuro exam is the evaluation of an individual’s nervous system to know how well it is functioning and find out an underlying condition. A neurological exam may include:

  • MRI Brain
  • Physical Exam
  • Blood Tests
  • Nerve conduction velocity studies/electromyography
  • CT Brain
  • Spinal MRI
  • Neurological exam
  • Spinal X-ray
  • Myelogram

  3. CT Scans
  4. Lumbar Puncture
  5. MRI Scans
  6. X-ray Imaging
  7. Electroencephalogram
