Direct examination of the Optic disc and retina with an Ophthalmoscope is an important step in the neurological examination. This requires considerable training and has to be practiced well.

Vascular accidents such as embolism, thrombosis, and hemorrhage come on abruptly, often within minutes to hours. In embolism, the neurological deficit is maximal at the start, and tends to wear off with time. In thrombotic lesions often, there are warning transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) and the whole process may take a few to several hours.

It typically includes an examination of the 12 nerves of the head and neck, reflexes, balance and coordination, muscle strength and movement, and mental status- awareness and response to the environment, appearance and general behavior, orientation, attention and memory.

Physicians depend mostly on MRI scans for getting precise scanning results that will help them decide on the most effective treatment. The magnetic and radio waves used in this system produce clear and detailed scanned images.

When the patient is placed under the MRI machine, the protons of the particular area to be scanned will become capable of receiving and transmitting electromagnetic energy.

The idea of deep tendon reflexes was mentioned in documents published by Heinrich Erb and Carl Westphal, two physicians studying the idea. Marshall Hall expanded on this idea and found that there are a number of uncontrolled reflexes within the body. To test the reflexes of the knee and other tendons, the first instrument used was the percussion hammer.

Clinical Neurophysiology is the practice of diagnosing and treating Neurological afflictions pertaining to the Autonomic, Central, and peripheral nervous systems. A Child Neurologist is someone that has been trained to diagnosis and prescribe treatment for children suffering from Neurological disorders.

While the neuro nurses are those who have studied the services to be offered so that patients could recover soon, there are neurology physician assistants who are trained to take the case history of the patients, perform the relevant physical examination and other procedures.

The magnetic fields of different nuclei tend to align parallel to the induced magnetic field. If at this stage a burst of radio-frequency is delivered to the tissue, the spinning nuclei are tilted or made to process to 90 degrees or even 180 degrees, depending on the strength of the radio frequency.

Once you have the ability to alter the way in which you perceive something, you then have the ability to modify how you react to that stimulus. For instance when someone has a fear of spiders, NLP can help them change their perception of spiders to a more positive one and therefore, eliminate that phobia.

Substances such as radioactive fluorine, oxygen, rubidium, etc, are positron emitters. Positrons are positively charged electrons. When positrons collide, against electrons and annihilation takes place, two photons (or X-ray particles) fly out in opposite directions from this meeting point.
