What is assessed through neurological examinations?
Neurological examinations are conducted to examine cognition, perceptions of special and other somatic
senses like touch and pain, muscle tone and strength, reflexes, balance and a vast array of other
functions of the nervous system. Some of the state-of-the-art diagnostic procedures include the nerve
conduction studies (for assessing nerves), electromyography (for assessing muscles),
electroencephalography (for assessing electrical activity of the brain), and Evoked Potentials (for
assessing hearing and vision). Brain and spinal cord structure is evaluated through MRI, CT scans,
Carotid Doppler, etc.

Information For Patients
Nerve Conduction Studies (NCS) : Involves electrical stimulation of peripheral nerves
with recording of responses from nerves and muscles. It is used to investigate, for
example, focal neuropathies such as carpal tunnel syndrome and other causes of numbness,
tingling, and pain in the limbs.
Investigates the causes of muscle weakness and a variety of disorders affecting the
nervous system. Combining the EMG and NCS often improves diagnostic accuracy.
Evoked potentials are potentials produced by the brain and spinal cord in response to
specific stimuli, for example, a flashing light or sound or a small electrical impulse.
