FAQ's Related to Neurosurgeon

Neurosurgeons provide surgical treatment for the conditions of the brain and spine. They are considered some of the highly experienced and trained specialists in medicine and are involved in consulting with other doctors about various cases. Neurosurgeons treat people with a range of neurological issues, such as lower back pain, brain tumor, carpal tunnel syndrome, and peripheral nervous system disorders. Neurosurgeons work in different settings like private clinics and public or private hospitals. They often collaborate with other specialists and medical professionals as per the requirement of surgery. They also evaluate the condition of the patient before performing surgery in order to find the complications of the surgery, if any.

Diagnosis tests act as an important tool to find out the condition(s) a patient is suffering from. So, a neurosurgeon will ask you to get a few tests done so that they get to know the cause of the symptoms which further helps in finding the condition the patient is suffering from. Based on the diagnosis, the doctor can start appropriate treatment. For a complete evaluation of your condition, you have to undergo neurological examination which may include the following:

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

  1. Cerebral Angiogram
  2. CT Myelogram
  3. CT Scans
  4. Lumbar Puncture
  5. MRI Scans
  6. X-ray Imaging
  7. Electroencephalogram
  8. Electromyogram
  9. Spinal tap CT

  2. Weak grip
  3. Persistent headache/migraine
  4. Impaired movement
  5. Seizures
