What diseases are treated by a neuropathologist?

The neuropathologist specializes in the detection of disorders and diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system, i.e. the pathologies of the brain and spinal cord, nerve fibers, nerve roots and neuromuscular junctions.

The main neuromuscular disorders are associated with pathological processes in pyramidal and extrapyramidal systems. The pyramidal system coordinates muscular strength, movements, and extrapyramidal regulates muscle tone at rest (for example, in a prone position).

Depending on the etiology and involved structures, there are several causes of neurological diseases, namely:

• angiopathology and disorder of cerebral circulation (encephalopathy, angioneurosis, neurocirculatory dystonia, paresis, dysfunction of the sensory system, sleep disorders, post- stroke states, etc.);
• worsening of cerebrospinal circulation with lesion of nerve roots (lumboischialgia, radiculitis, osteochondrosis, intervertebral hernia, etc.);
• inflammation of the nervous tissue (neuropathy, thoracalgia, neuritis, polyneuropathy, etc.);
• damage to brain areas responsible for speech (motor and sensomotor aphasia, dysphasia, etc.);
• bacterial, fungal and viral infections or strong immune responses to them (ganglionitis, Herpes zoster, etc.);
• degenerative changes in the NS (dementia, vestibular, sphincter or cognitive impairment).

Specialists of the department of neurology of the clinic "ON Clinic Cherkasy" have extensive experience and deep knowledge, they will take all necessary medical measures to identify the source of pathology and establish an accurate diagnosis.

To do this, a thorough examination of the patient will be prescribed, which may include EEG, duplex scanning of cerebral vessels, electromyography, analysis of sensitivity and reflexes.
