Neurology

Best Neurology Hospital in Delhi

Neurology is a speciality of medicine that focuses on the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system. The central nervous system includes the brain and the spinal cord, while the peripheral nervous system is made up of the somatic and the autonomic nervous system. They play an important role in picking up sensory information from the peripheral organs like eyes, ears, etc., carrying the information to the brain, and controlling the nerves of the inner organs like the heart, digestive system, etc. A neurologist is a doctor who specializes in treating the conditions of the brain and spinal cord which includes Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, headache disorders, strokes etc.

Treatment & Procedures

Stroke Management

After confirming stroke, a neurologist will prescribe a series of scans, tests, and examinations to identify the way a stroke has affected the neurological system. The standard battery of tests will include MRIs, CT scans, Ultrasound, blood draws, angiograms and echocardiograms. These tests will shed light on the severity of the stroke as well as the…

Outpatient and In-patient services

Whether you need to be admitted to our hospital for a serious neurological condition, or come in for a day procedure, our high precision diagnostic equipment help our neurology team to prescribe the best mode of treatment. That’s why patients trust Manipal Hospitals with precise diagnosis.

Our brain and spinal cord are surrounded by fluid called cerebrospinal fluid. Lumbar puncture is a procedure in which doctor collects a sample of cerebrospinal fluid which can be tested in the lab for diseases of the brain and spinal cord.

EEG or Electroencephalogram is a test that records the electrical activity of the brain and brain wave patterns.

EMG or Electromyography is an invasive diagnostic procedure to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them (motor neurons). EMG results can reveal nerve dysfunction, muscle dysfunction or problems with nerve-to-muscle signal transmission.

Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive disease of the brain that is characterized by dementia or loss of memory, behavioural changes, and loss of cognitive thinking, which eventually becomes severe affecting everyday simple tasks. The disease is named after Dr Alois Alzheimer who was the first person to notice some brain tissues changes like amyloid…

Nerves control the muscles in the body by electrical signals and this impulse make the muscles react in specific ways. NCS or Nerve Conduction Study is a non-invasive test which measures how well and how fast the nerves can send electrical signals.

The dedicated premium lab at Manipal Hospital is equipped with powerful diagnostic intruments. The Electrophysiology lab boasts of high precision Electroencephalogram (EEG), video telemetry and Electromyography (EMG) scans. An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test that measures and records the electrical activity of the brain. Here, electrical sensors…

Treatment of various neuro-muscular…

The human mind is an intricate web of emotions, thoughts and behaviours. Similarly, the brain operates through electric signals that influence our actions. This intriguing combination is what our immensely talented neurologists and neuropsychologists at Manipal Hospitals handle on a daily basis.

Stroke Management: When your brain does not get sufficient blood supply, the brain cells die due to insufficient oxygen and nutrients, causing a stroke. On arrival in the hospital’s emergency room, your doctor will perform a physical and neurological examination, blood investigations, imaging tests like CT (computerized tomography) scan, MRI, cerebral angiograms, echocardiogram, etc., to determine the type of stroke, if the arteries are blocked, source of the blood clots, and to rule out other causes like tumour growth, etc. Emergency treatment includes administering medications intravenously to break down the clot, and certain endovascular procedures are performed as soon as possible. Specialized stroke care units are there with comprehensive care which includes rehabilitation and post-stroke care.
Alzheimer's Diseases: This is a progressive neurologic disorder caused by the death of the brain cells. Dementia, a decline in cognitive skills, behavioural disability, etc., are some signs and symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and can affect a person's ability to function independently. If you are looking for Alzheimers disease treatment in Delhi then contact us immediately. We are working 24/7 to take good care of you and your loved ones.
Parkinson’s Disease: This is a progressive brain disorder that causes problems with maintaining balance and coordination which get worsen over time. Medical management is done as per individual patient‘s need, constant supervision is done over the course of the disease. Parkinsons disease treatment in Delhi is available at Manipal Hospital at an affordable cost.
Neuroimmunological disorders: Multiple sclerosis, Neuromyelitis Optica comprehensive care is there including medical management and rehabilitation.

Neurological disorders are disorders of the central and peripheral nervous systems, which controls our moments, thoughts, emotions, heart rate, breathing, body temperature, etc. Our central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord that picks up information from all the organs and coordinates activity. The peripheral nervous system controls the sensory and motor nerves of peripheral organs. Conditions of the nervous system may cause problems with movements, breathing, speaking, learning, memory, behaviour, etc. There are more than 600 diseases and disorders of the nervous system including:

Stroke: Brain cells start to die due to insufficient blood supply to the brain caused by blocking of the blood vessels by a blood clot (Ischaemic stroke) or bleeding from the brains blood vessels (haemorrhagic stroke).
Brain injury
Spinal cord injury or compression
Brain tumours
Meningitis
Headache disorders including migraine and others
Huntington's disease is an inherited disease that causes uncontrolled movements, and balance problems due to defective genes or wasting of certain nerve cells.
Muscular dystrophy is a group of inherited diseases that causes muscle wasting and weakness due to faulty genes.
Neuropathy
Movements disorders
Degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's diseases and Parkinson’s diseases.

Manipal Hospital has a team of the best neurologist in Delhi who will check for complex neurology diseases and conditions of the patient and provide treatment based on the observation.
