Depending on your condition, the neurologist may recommend several tests, including:
- Electroencephalogram (EEG): records the brain’s electrical activity. Useful for diagnosing epilepsy or sleep disorders.
- Electromyogram (EMG): measures nerve and muscle function. Recommended for detecting neuropathies or carpal tunnel syndrome.
- Brain MRI: if necessary, to explore structural abnormalities of the brain (lesions, tumors, stroke, etc.).
- Cognitive assessment: evaluates memory, language, and concentration, often in cases of cognitive disorders or early Alzheimer’s.
