Diagnosis
Neurologists reach a diagnosis by taking a detailed history and performing a neurological examination (which varies in length depending on the complexity of the problem), after which investigations may be indicated, all of which are available at the Wellington Hospital and may include imaging with the latest MRI or 64 slice CT scan or neurophysiological tests as detailed here.
The treatment options once a diagnosis is reached may be:
- drugs
- neurorehabilitation
- referral to a neurosurgeon or other specialist; or
- simply monitor the symptoms without any intervention.
