Neurological Diagnostic Tests

Our neurology department provides a range of diagnostic procedures for neurological conditions, which include:

• Angiography is a medical test that examines the condition of blood vessels in the brain, head, or neck in order to identify any blockages, damage, or abnormalities. This includes the detection of aneurysms and blood clots.
• Biopsy is a procedure that involves the extraction of tissue samples from different parts of the body, such as muscles, nerves, or brain tissue.
• Cerebrospinal Fluid Analysis is a diagnostic procedure that involves collecting a sample of the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. The purpose of this analysis is to detect indications of conditions such as brain hemorrhage, infections, multiple sclerosis, and metabolic diseases.
• We offer a range of imaging techniques for diagnostic purposes. These include Computed Tomography (CT), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), X-rays, and ultrasound.
• Electroencephalography (EEG) is a test that assesses the electrical activity of the brain. It is valuable for diagnosing conditions such as seizures, infections like encephalitis, brain injuries, and tumors.
• Electromyography (EMG) is a procedure that records muscle electrical activity. It is used to diagnose nerve and muscle disorders, spinal nerve root compression, and motor neuron disorders like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
• Myelography is a diagnostic procedure that helps identify spinal and spinal cord tumors, herniated disks, and other abnormalities.
