About the specialty

The neurologist relies on clinical examination and imaging. Polycrabat Sevamed coordinates consultations, tests and, if necessary, referral to a neurosurgeon.

Tests, techniques and procedures

The techniques used and their indication are decided by the doctor, case by case. As a general guide:

  • Neurological examination
