Sessions &Tracks

1: Neurology

Neurology is a branch of medicine concerned with disorders of the nervous system. It deals with the detailed study and medication of all division of conditions and disorder involving the central and peripheral nervous systems, including their coverings, blood vessels and all effector tissue such as muscle. Neurological system relies heavily on the field of neuroscience, the scientific study of the nervous system. The doctor who specially designed in neurology is known as neurologist. The neurologist experienced to investigate or diagnose and treat a neurological disorder that affects the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. Neurologists do not implement surgery if any patient requires surgery they refer to neurosurgeons.

• Central nervous system
• Peripheral nervous system
• General neurology
• Cerebrovascular disease
• Behavioural neurology

2: Neuromuscular Disorders

Neuromuscular disorders affect the nerves that control our own voluntary muscles. Voluntary muscles are the ones which we can control by our self like in your arms and legs. Your nerve cells also called as neurons, send the messages that control these muscles. When the neurons become delicate or die, communication between your nervous system and muscles breaks down.  As a result, your muscles weaken and waste away this weakness can lead to twitching, cramps, aches, pains, and joint and movement problems. Frequently it also affects heart function and your ability to breathe.More than a million people in the United States are affected by some form of neuromuscular disease, and about 40 percent of them are under age18.

• Multiple sclerosis
• Myasthenia gravis
• Spinal muscular atrophy

3: Neurosurgery

Neurosurgery or neurological surgery is the medicinal specialty concerned with the prevention, detailed study, surgical treatment and improvement of disorders which affect any portion of the nervous system including the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and extra-cranial cerebrovascular system. A doctor who specializes in neurosurgery is known as Neurosurgeon they are not only brain surgeons, but they can medically trained neurosurgical specialists who can also help patients suffering from back and neck pain along with other illnesses ranging from trigeminal neuralgia to head injury and Parkinson's disease.
