FAQ's Related to Neurosurgeon

Neurosurgeons, also known as brain surgeons, are doctors who specialize in the surgical treatment of conditions that affect the nervous system, brain, and spine. Neurosurgeons first have the training which makes them eligible to practise as a doctor. After this, they complete specialist training in neurosurgery. 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.

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. A neurological examination is the assessment of motor responses and sensory neuron and includes the following:

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

Below are some tests that a neurosurgeon may recommend for the diagnosis of the conditions 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.
