What does Neurology Involve?
Neurology is a branch of medicine that specialises in diagnosing and treating disorders of the nervous system. This includes the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. Neurological conditions can range from mild headaches to severe neurodegenerative diseases, impacting movement, memory, and overall health. Our experts focus on both early diagnosis and long-term management, ensuring patients receive the care they need to lead fulfilling lives.

When to Consult a Neurologist
Knowing when to see a neurologist is vital for early diagnosis and effective treatment. Here are key situations that warrant consultation:
- Persistent or Severe Headaches: Frequent migraines or headaches with nausea, vision changes, or sensitivity to light may indicate a neurological condition requiring expert care.
- Seizures or Loss of Consciousness: Unexplained seizures or fainting episodes may be signs of epilepsy or other brain disorders. A neurologist can determine the cause and recommend treatment.
- Chronic Dizziness or Vertigo: Ongoing dizziness or vertigo could stem from nervous system or inner ear issues, which a neurologist can evaluate and manage.
- Memory Issues or Cognitive Decline: Difficulty remembering or frequent confusion may indicate conditions like dementia or Alzheimer’s disease that require neurological assessment.
- Movement Problems or Tremors: Tremors, stiffness, or coordination difficulties can signal disorders like Parkinson’s disease, needing prompt neurological attention.
- Numbness or Tingling in Limbs: Persistent tingling, numbness, or weakness in extremities may suggest nerve damage or disorders such as neuropathy.
- Stroke Symptoms: Sudden numbness, slurred speech, confusion, or trouble walking are stroke indicators needing immediate neurological intervention.

Why Choose Graphic Era Hospital for Neurological Care?

Cutting-Edge Neurological Procedures
At Graphic Era Hospital, we leverage advanced medical technologies and innovative techniques to diagnose and treat a variety of neurological conditions. Our goal is to provide accurate assessments, effective treatments, and improved patient outcomes. Below are some of the cutting-edge neurological procedures offered by our highly skilled team:
EEG (Electroencephalogram): Essential for Epilepsy Diagnosis
An EEG is a non-invasive test that measures the electrical activity of the brain. It plays a vital role in diagnosing epilepsy and other neurological disorders by identifying abnormal brain wave patterns. This procedure is painless and helps neurologists determine the severity and type of seizures, allowing for personalised treatment plans.
EMG (Electromyography): Evaluating Nerve and Muscle Function
EMG is used to assess the health of muscles and the nerves that control them. It is particularly effective in diagnosing neuropathies, muscle disorders, and motor neuron diseases. During the test, small electrodes are inserted into muscles to record electrical activity, providing valuable insights into nerve and muscle health.
MRI and CT Scans: Accurate Imaging for Neurological Disorders
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) scans are crucial tools for visualising the brain and spinal cord. These imaging techniques help detect strokes, tumours, multiple sclerosis, and other structural abnormalities. The high-resolution images enable precise diagnosis and facilitate the development of targeted treatment strategies.
Cerebral Angiography: Advanced Stroke Assessment
Cerebral angiography is a specialised procedure used to visualise blood vessels in the brain. It is essential for diagnosing conditions such as aneurysms, vascular malformations, and blockages that may lead to strokes. This minimally invasive test involves injecting a contrast dye into the blood vessels, followed by X-ray imaging, to provide detailed views of the brain's vascular system.
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS): Revolutionary Treatment for Parkinson’s
Deep Brain Stimulation is a highly effective surgical procedure for managing movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, dystonia, and essential tremor. During DBS, electrodes are implanted in specific areas of the brain and connected to a pacemaker-like device that sends electrical signals to regulate abnormal brain activity. This treatment significantly improves motor function and enhances the quality of life for patients.
Spinal Cord Stimulation: Relief for Chronic Pain
Spinal Cord Stimulation is a cutting-edge procedure used to manage chronic pain in conditions such as neuropathy and failed back surgery syndrome. The technique involves implanting a small device near the spinal cord, which delivers mild electrical pulses to block pain signals before they reach the brain. This minimally invasive approach offers significant relief without the need for heavy medications or invasive surgery.
Neuropsychological Testing: Comprehensive Cognitive Assessment
Neuropsychological testing is a detailed evaluation of a patient’s cognitive, emotional, and behavioural functions. These tests are essential for diagnosing conditions like dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, and traumatic brain injuries. The results help neurologists develop personalised rehabilitation and care plans for patients experiencing memory loss or cognitive decline.
Neuroendoscopy: Minimally Invasive Brain Surgery
Neuroendoscopy is an advanced surgical technique that uses a small camera, called an endoscope, to access and treat conditions such as brain tumours, hydrocephalus, and cysts. This minimally invasive procedure reduces the risk of complications, minimises scarring, and allows for faster recovery times compared to traditional open surgeries.
At Graphic Era Hospital, these state-of-the-art procedures are carried out by highly experienced neurologists and neurosurgeons, ensuring the best possible care for patients. By integrating cutting-edge technology with compassionate treatment, we strive to provide unparalleled neurological care for individuals and families in need.
