== Diagnosis ==
The diagnosis of neurological disorders involves a neurological examination as well as diagnostic tests. Tests may include blood tests, imaging (like MRI or CT scans), and electrophysiology tests such as electroencephalogram (EEG) or electromyogram (EMG).
== Treatment and Management ==
Treatment varies depending on the specific disease and can include medication, rehabilitation therapy, surgery, and lifestyle changes. For some disorders, treatment can effectively control symptoms. Others, like certain degenerative diseases, may not have a cure, and treatment is aimed at improving quality of life.
