Many conditions that require a neurosurgeon involve the brain, the spine or peripheral nerves. An important part to understanding patient problems is a careful history and physical exam. This can reveal clues to help a physician find a possible answer. Other times a CT scan or MRI scan may be required. Plain X-rays of affected areas in a body also provide information.
For spasmodic torticollis, an examination under videotape is important. Even a personal video provided to our physicians demonstrating the range of motion in the neck can be useful. Call the office to arrange a diagnostic evaluation consultation at (904) 244-3950.
