Neurology – PP Maniya Hospital

Tumour Board Meeting

Tumor board meetings are integral gatherings where a team of medical professionals from various specialties, including oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and other experts, convene to discuss and review complex cancer cases. The primary goal is to collectively analyze patient medical records, imaging results, pathology reports, and treatment options to devise the most effective and personalized treatment plans for individual patients.

During these meetings, each specialist provides insights based on their expertise, contributing valuable perspectives to form a comprehensive understanding of the patient’s condition. Discussions may cover various aspects such as:

These meetings not only foster interdisciplinary collaboration but also ensure that patients receive the most comprehensive and tailored care possible.

Neurology Diagnostic Services

Areas Of Neurology & Neurosurgery Care.

Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery involves surgical treatment of various diseases and disorders hitting the nervous system including the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. With well-equipped operating rooms, our neurosurgeons perform several neurological surgical procedures for tumors, congenital anomalies, stroke, trauma, vascular disorders, infections of the brain or spine, degenerative diseases of the spine, etc.

Neuro Oncology

Neurological cancers can be malignant or benign and take a huge toll on the patient’s health leading to morbidity and sometimes even mortality. Our Neuro-oncologists work in conjunction with radiation oncologists and medical oncologists to provide unique comprehensive care for patients with Astrocytomas, Meningiomas, Oligodendrogliomas, Pituitary tumour, Spinal cord tumour, etc.

Cognitive and Behavioural Neurology

The neurological damage has a huge impact on a person’s behaviour, memory, perception, emotion, and cognition. To relieve them from these difficulties, this area of care focuses on the management of various neurologic conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, Non-Alzheimer Dementias, Mild cognitive impairment, Frontotemporal lobar degeneration, Autism and Asperger syndrome, and Learning disabilities.

Critical Care Neurology

This area of care has generated a deep interest in early recognition and treatment of most critically ill stages of neurologic diseases including Stroke, Head Injury, Spinal Cord Injury, Coma, Seizure, paralysis, etc. Our neurocritical care experts help every patient to navigate the challenging path by handholding them till their complete recoup.

Neurology Care – Diagnosis CT Scan

CT scan is an imaging procedure which uses X-rays to produce cross-sectional images of the body. This fast and painless procedure aids in diagnosing brain damage from a head injury, detecting blood clots in the brain, brain tumors and cysts, detecting spinal stenosis, and many more. The images of CT scan can give more detailed information about your internal organs and their injuries which plain X-rays can’t.
Carotid Ultrasound
This diagnostic technique uses high-frequency sound waves to look at the structure and function of the carotid arteries which runs on either side of your neck. This test shows whether fatty deposits called plaque has clogged or narrowed the carotid arteries. Narrowed carotid arteries reduce the blood flow to the brain and increase the risk of stroke.
Discogram
Discogram, often spelled Diskogram, is an interventional diagnostic imaging test to evaluate the cause of the back pain. It helps to determine if a specific intervertebral disc in the spinal column is the source of the pain, by injecting a contrast liquid called dye into the center of the spinal discs using x-ray guidance.
Electroencephalogram (EEG)
An EEG is a diagnostic procedure to detect the abnormalities in the brain waves by attaching electrodes consisting of flat metal discs to the scalp. This test, in which the result is observed as wavy lines on a computer screen, is paramount in diagnosing several types of brain disorders mainly epilepsy and sleep disorders.
Electromyography (EMG)
Electromyography (EMG) is an electrodiagnostic medicine technique which measures how well the muscles respond when the nerves are stimulated. During this test, small needles (or electrodes) are inserted into the muscles to pick up the electrical activity in those muscles. The resulting signals are converted into graphs, sounds or numerical values that help the doctors to diagnose the problems with nerve-to-muscle signal transmission, nerve dysfunction or muscle dysfunction.
Lumbar Puncture (Spinal Tap)
Lumbar Puncture is performed to acquire information about the cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. This test involves inserting a needle between the two lumbar bones in the lower back to withdraw a sample of the fluid. Meningitis, Guillain-Barre syndrome, multiple sclerosis, cancers in the spinal cord or brain are a few conditions which can be diagnosed by this test.

Trauma And Stroke Center

A trauma center and a stroke center are specialized medical facilities that cater to different types of emergencies.

Trauma Center:

A trauma center is equipped to handle severe injuries resulting from accidents, falls, violence, and other traumatic incidents.
It’s usually categorized into different levels based on the resources, capabilities, and expertise available.
Trauma centers provide immediate medical attention, stabilization, surgery, intensive care, and rehabilitation services for trauma patients.
They have specialized teams including trauma surgeons, emergency physicians, nurses, and other specialists to manage critical injuries.

Stroke Center:

A stroke center focuses on diagnosing and treating strokes, which occur when there is a disruption in blood supply to the brain.
A stroke center focuses on diagnosing and treating strokes, which occur when there is a disruption in blood supply to the brain.
Stroke centers aim for rapid assessment, diagnosis, and treatment to minimize brain damage and prevent complications.
They use advanced imaging techniques to determine the type and cause of stroke, such as ischemic (due to a blood clot) or hemorrhagic (due to bleeding).
Stroke centers offer specialized treatments including clot-busting medications, procedures to remove clots, and rehabilitation services for stroke survivors.

Neurology Team

Neurology and neurosurgery are fascinating fields within medicine that focus on the nervous system.

Neurology deals with the diagnosis and treatment of conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and muscles. Neurologists specialize in disorders such as epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and more. They often use imaging techniques like MRI or CT scans and neurological exams to diagnose conditions and prescribe treatments, which may involve medication or other therapies.

On the other hand, neurosurgery involves surgical interventions for conditions affecting the nervous system. Neurosurgeons are specialized surgeons who operate on the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. They perform procedures to treat conditions like brain tumours, traumatic injuries, spinal cord disorders, and other neurological problems that may require surgical intervention. Neurosurgeons often work closely with neurologists and other specialists to provide comprehensive care to patients.

Both fields require extensive training and expertise due to the complexity of the nervous system and the delicate nature of the procedures involved.

We have experience and young team who are trained in reputed medical college. Our Neurologist and Neurosurgeon both are work in coordination manner for treating any neurological disorder patient. We have stroke team which help us for treating the patient within golden hours.
