About Neuro Radiology

Neuro Radiology is a specialized branch of medical imaging focused on diagnosing and treating conditions of the brain, spine, head, neck, and central nervous system. Performed by a highly trained Neuroradiologist, this field utilizes advanced imaging technologies like MRI, CT scans, angiography, and myelography to create detailed visualizations. These images are critical for detecting abnormalities such as tumors, strokes, aneurysms, spinal disorders, and traumatic injuries. Beyond diagnosis, interventional neuroradiology involves minimally invasive procedures to treat these conditions, often serving as an alternative to open surgery. This precise and targeted approach is essential for developing effective treatment plans and improving patient outcomes in complex neurological cases.

Key Highlights

Provides highly detailed, non-invasive or minimally invasive imaging of the brain, spine, and nervous system.Enables precise diagnosis of complex conditions like strokes, tumors, aneurysms, and spinal disorders.Facilitates image-guided, minimally invasive treatments, often reducing the need for open surgery.Utilizes cutting-edge technology (e.g., MRI, CT, angiography) for superior accuracy.Performed by a subspecialist (Neuroradiologist) with expert training in neurological imaging and intervention.

Who is this surgery for?

Evaluation of stroke (ischemic or hemorrhagic) to determine cause and extent.
Detection and characterization of brain or spinal tumors.
Diagnosis of aneurysms, vascular malformations (AVMs), or vessel blockages.
Assessment of traumatic brain or spine injuries (e.g., fractures, bleeds).
Investigation of chronic headaches, seizures, or unexplained neurological symptoms.
Diagnosis of degenerative diseases like multiple sclerosis or dementia.
Planning for neurosurgical or radiation oncology procedures.
Evaluation of spinal conditions such as herniated discs, stenosis, or infections.

How to prepare

Discuss all medications, allergies (especially to contrast dye or iodine), and medical history with your doctor.
Inform the team if there is any possibility of pregnancy or if you have kidney problems.
For MRI scans, remove all metal objects (jewelry, hearing aids, piercings) and inform staff of any implants (pacemakers, metal clips).
Follow specific instructions regarding fasting, typically for 4-6 hours before procedures involving sedation or contrast.
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing without metal zippers or fasteners; you may be asked to change into a gown.
Arrange for someone to drive you home if sedation or anesthesia is planned.

Risks & possible complications

Allergic reaction to intravenous contrast dye, ranging from mild to severe.
Risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (a rare skin condition) from gadolinium contrast in patients with severe kidney disease.
Small risk of infection or bleeding at the catheter insertion site for interventional procedures.
Minimal radiation exposure from CT scans, with associated long-term risk considered very low.
Potential for claustrophobia or anxiety during MRI scans.
Complications specific to interventional procedures, such as stroke, vessel damage, or blood clots, though these are uncommon.

Recovery & hospital stay

For diagnostic imaging (MRI/CT), recovery is immediate, and you can typically resume normal activities right away.
If contrast was used, drink plenty of fluids to help flush it from your system.
After interventional procedures, you will be monitored in a recovery area for several hours. The insertion site must be kept clean and dry.
You may experience mild soreness at the catheter site; over-the-counter pain relievers can help.
Avoid strenuous activity, heavy lifting, and driving for 24-48 hours post-procedure, or as advised.
Attend all follow-up appointments to discuss results and any further treatment plans with your neuroradiologist or referring physician.

Typical hospital stay: 0-1 days
Expected recovery time: 1-7 days

PATIENT REVIEW

Aarav Davis, a 42-year-old software engineer...

Aarav Davis, a 42-year-old software engineer and father of two, had always been active. Six months ago, he began experiencing debilitating, stabbing headaches on the right side of his head, accompanied by blurred vision and nausea. Over-the-counter painkillers provided no relief. His primary care physician ordered an MRI, which revealed a small, suspicious tangle of blood vessels in his brain, a possible arteriovenous malformation (AVM). The neurologist referred him to a neuroradiologist, Dr. Chen, who recommended a diagnostic cerebral angiogram. This minimally invasive procedure would provide a detailed map of the blood vessels in his brain to confirm the diagnosis and plan potential treatment. On the day of the procedure, Aarav was anxious but comforted by Dr. Chen's calm explanation. Under local anesthesia, a thin catheter was threaded from his groin to the arteries in his brain. He felt pressure but no pain. The angiogram confirmed a small AVM in a relatively safe location. Emotionally, Aarav was terrified before the procedure, fearing a brain surgery or a life-limiting condition. The clarity provided by the angiogram was a turning point. Knowing the exact problem allowed his team to recommend a targeted treatment plan (likely focused radiation). While not cured, Aarav felt a profound sense of relief and regained control. His recovery was swift, a day of rest to prevent bleeding at the catheter site, and he left the hospital with a clear path forward, his anxiety replaced by cautious optimism.
