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 mostly see patients in their own clinics and public and private hospitals. Sometimes, they have to work with other specialists and medical experts to seek their opinion on diagnosis and surgery techniques. They also evaluate the diagnostic tests to know the exact underlying conditions and accordingly proceed with the treatment.

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:

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

The below-listed are some of the diagnostic tests recommended by a neurosurgeon to diagnose a condition of the nervous system::

  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

Here are some of the top signs that suggest you should consult a neurosurgeon:

  1. Numbness and pain
  2. Weak grip
  3. Persistent headache/migraine
  4. Impaired movement
  5. Seizures
  6. Balance issues

Dealing with the entire nervous system, neurosurgeons treat all the parts of the body that are affected by nerve issues. They do complex surgeries on the brain. Before starting treatment, they diagnose patients' symptoms and design minimally invasive treatment plans.
