This division specialises in diagnosing the entire spectrum of neurologic diseases, including brain tumours, strokes and other vascular disorders, spine disease, neurodegenerative diseases, and brain malformations with special emphasis on:
Functional MRI
In our brain, a continuous activity of neurons is taking place as we engage in various activities, from a simple task like moving our hand, or a complex task of understanding a mathematical problem. We have different specialised areas in our brain due to which activities involving vision, hearing, touch, language, memory etc., produce different patterns of activity in different areas of our brain. Neurons are active even when while resting. The functional MRI of the brain is an advanced non-invasive technique, which helps in mapping these specialised areas of the brain during a particular activity.
