Your Trusted Partner for Neurological Health
Sunway Medical Centre Velocity’s Neurocentre focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions related to the nervous system. These centers are staffed by a team of healthcare professionals, including neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuro-ophthal surgeons, neuroradiologists, and other specialists, who work together to provide comprehensive care for patients with neurological disorders.
Services offered at a neuro center may include diagnostic testing such as EEGs and MRIs, treatment for conditions like epilepsy, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson's disease, as well as neurosurgical procedures for conditions like brain tumors and spinal disorders.
Common Neuro Conditions
These can be caused by various factors, including tension, migraines, and cluster headaches.
Migraine headaches are characterized by severe throbbing pain, often accompanied by other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound.
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, which can vary in severity and type.
A stroke occurs when there is a disruption of blood flow to the brain, leading to brain damage. Ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes are the two primary types.
A progressive neurodegenerative disorder that primarily affects memory and cognitive function.
A neurodegenerative disorder that affects movement and is characterized by tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia (slowness of movement).
An autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, causing a wide range of symptoms, including fatigue, numbness, and muscle weakness.
This condition involves damage to the peripheral nerves and can cause symptoms like tingling, numbness, and pain in the extremities.
Brain injuries caused by external trauma, such as concussions or more severe injuries resulting from accidents or falls.
A group of disorders that affect movement, muscle tone, and motor skills, typically occurring in early childhood.
Brain tumors are abnormal growths of cells within the brain or nearby structures. They can be benign or malignant and may cause symptoms such as headaches, seizures, changes in personality, or neurological deficits. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, depending on the tumor type and location.
