- Neurosurgeons: Specially trained neurology doctors who perform surgical procedures on the brain, spinal cord and nerves.
- Neuropsychiatrists: Doctors who specialized in processes of the brain, specifically psychological and psychiatric symptoms such as sudden impulsiveness or declining memory.
Neurologists
A neurologist is specifically trained to identify, diagnose, recognize and treat disorders of the nervous system and brain.
Some of the conditions commonly treated by a neurologist include:
- Strokes and damage resulting from strokes
- Dementia
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Parkinson’s disease
- Huntington’s disease
- Multiple sclerosis
- Traumatic brain injury
- Epilepsy and seizure disorders
- Migraine headaches
Neurosurgeons
A neurosurgeon specializes in brain, spinal cord and nerve surgery.
Conditions that are often treated with neurosurgery include:
- Meningitis
- Spinal stenosis
- Hydrocephalus
- Spinal cord trauma
- Brain trauma
- Tumors of the brain, spine, and peripheral nerves
- Intercerebral hemorrhages
Neuropsychologists
Neuropsychologists specialize in how brain function relates to psychology and behavior. Specifically, clinical neuropsychologists use neuroimaging tools and neuropsychological testing to find any physical abnormality in the brain that affects mental process, like cognition, memory, impulse control and mood regulation.
Additional neurology care team members
- Neuroimaging Specialist: A neuroimaging specialist is an expert in the use of high-resolution imaging tools. Some of the tools they use are functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), positron emission tomography (PET) and electroencephalography.
- Neurodevelopmental and Neuromuscular Neurologists: Neurodevelopmental and neuromuscular neurologists can improve the quality of life for patients who are diagnosed with neurological conditions that affect their long-term development, such as cerebral palsy and Down syndrome. Patients with these conditions often require a lifetime of care.
- Pain Management and Palliative Care Neurologists: Neurologists can specialize in pain management for neurological conditions can lead to chronic pain, or progressive deterioration of a mobility and mental capacity. These treatments often use a combination of drugs and therapy to help patients manage their pain levels.
