Neurology & Neuro Surgery

Neurology tackles all issues related to the functioning of the most critical part of our body – the brain. While neuro diagnostic techniques help to identify the problems of the brain, neurologists and neurosurgeons take corrective measures to treat and manage the patient. Neuro diagnostics

Electroencephalograph (EEG): This device records the brain’s electrical activity and reproduces it on paper or on a computer screen. It is done for a variety of medical reasons, including evaluation of seizure disorders.

Electromyography (EMG):This is a test for evaluating and recording the electrical activity produce by skeletal muscles. It is used as a diagnostics tool for identifying neuromuscular diseases, assessing low-back pain, kinesiology, and disorders of motor control.

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging):It uses powerful magnetic currents to determine the blood flow and the activities in different regions of the brain. Haria L G Rotary Hospital has one of the finest MRI scanners 1.5 Tesla machine for Best Results.

CT Scan: Brain CT scan enables the doctors to detect the pressure of physical abnormalities or tumors in the brain.

Evoked Potential (EP):It reads the electrical activity from the brain, spinal nerves, or sensory receptors in response to external stimuli. A combination of hi-tech hardware and software enables the doctors to determine the functional state of these pathways. This test is usually performed during spine surgery to help the surgeon make sure that nerves are not damaged during the operation.

Intraoperative Monitoring (IOM):This is a recording of signals from various areas of the nervous system during surgery. It monitors the nervous pathways at risk for ischemia, mechanical or other injuries during surgery and enables surgeons to take corrective actions.

Neurology

Welcome to the Department of Neurology at Haria L G Rotary Hospital! The Department has been a centre of excellence since its inception. We provide world-class, personalised, comprehensive consultative services, diagnostic testing and treatment for a wide range of neurological conditions, including diseases of the spinal cord, brain, peripheral nerves and muscles.

The department is comprised of eminent physicians and neurosurgeons, many of whom have tremendous national and international exposure for their clinical and/or research efforts. They share a common goal of finding new treatments that will reduce and ultimately stop the catastrophic impact of neurological disorders.

Our unique, integrated medical programme follows a multi-disciplinary and multi-modality approach to patient care and explores innovative ways to better understand and treat underlying disease mechanisms in the field of neuro sciences. We utilise the most sophisticated diagnostic procedures and the most innovative techniques to treat neurological conditions and related problems.
