The 50 pages that link to Neurological examination, each with the reason it gives.

• Peripheral neuropathyRelated: Its findings help map which nerve functions and body regions are affected.

• Physical examinationBroader topic: It applies examination techniques in detail to nervous-system function.

• NeurologyRelated: Its findings guide diagnosis and help localize nervous-system dysfunction.

• AtaxiaRelated: It identifies the distribution and character of coordination deficits.

• Neuropsychological assessmentCompared with: It assesses signs such as reflexes and coordination rather than relying mainly on cognitive tests.

• Brain deathRelated: A standardized examination supplies core evidence for determining whether brain function has ceased.

• DermatomeNarrower topic: Testing sensation across dermatomes helps identify the spinal level of a lesion.

• Muscle toneNarrower topic: Passive limb movement is one component of the motor examination.

• ComaRelated: Pupils, reflexes, and motor responses help localize dysfunction and guide urgent care.

• Functional neurological disorderRelated: FND diagnosis relies on specific examination findings, not merely normal test results.

• Mental status examinationCompared with: Neurological testing examines physical nervous-system signs beyond the MSE's focus on mental functioning.

• Muscle weaknessRelated: Its findings help localize the source of weakness.

• NeuroanatomyRelated: Observed deficits help identify which structures or pathways may be affected.

• Bilateral symmetryRelated: Comparing corresponding functions on both sides can reveal deficits that disrupt normal bilateral performance.

• Clinical observationBroader topic: Repeated findings can reveal changes in neurological status.

• NeurosurgeryRelated: It establishes deficits that guide diagnosis and track outcomes.

• Jean-Martin CharcotNarrower topic: Charcot’s systematic examinations made subtle signs central to diagnosing nervous-system disease.

• Spinal nerveRelated: Testing dermatomes and myotomes helps localize spinal nerve or root dysfunction.

• BrainRelated: It helps identify which brain systems may be impaired.

• HypotoniaNarrower topic: Tone is interpreted alongside strength, reflexes, posture, and other examination findings.

• Clinical examinationBroader topic: It applies examination techniques to localize dysfunction within the nervous system.

• Conversion disorderRelated: Examination findings help identify characteristic patterns and assess other possible causes.

• Hallucinogen persisting perception disorderRelated: Examination can help detect signs suggesting a neurological cause other than HPPD.

• Progressive supranuclear palsyRelated: Eye movements, gait, balance, and rigidity are assessed to support clinical diagnosis.

• Dissociative amnesiaRelated: It can help identify neurological explanations for reported memory loss.

• Neurological disorderRelated: Its findings help localize dysfunction and guide further testing.

• Spinocerebellar ataxiaRelated: Examination establishes the pattern of impairment and guides diagnostic testing.

• Corticobasal degenerationRelated: Examination documents the asymmetric motor and cortical signs that raise suspicion.

• Oliver SacksRelated: His clinical observations began with examining specific abilities and deficits.

• Alexander diseaseRelated: Findings such as spasticity, seizures, or developmental delay help characterize the clinical presentation.

• Congenital insensitivity to painRelated: Testing pain, temperature, touch, and reflexes helps characterize the sensory deficit.

• Skull fractureRelated: Findings help detect brain injury that a bone image cannot establish.

• Chiari malformationRelated: Findings help determine whether an imaging abnormality is causing neurological impairment.

• Hereditary spastic paraplegiaRelated: Leg tone, reflexes, strength, and walking help characterize the motor-pathway pattern.

• MacrocephalyRelated: Abnormal findings can point toward a cause needing prompt investigation.

• SyringomyeliaRelated: Examination can reveal deficits caused by spinal-cord injury.

• AstheniaRelated: Testing strength and reflexes helps determine whether reported weakness reflects a neurological deficit.

• Clinical lycanthropyRelated: Neurological evaluation can help identify conditions that might contribute to unusual beliefs or perceptions.

• HemiplegiaRelated: It maps which body regions are affected and helps localize the lesion.

• Neurodegenerative diseaseRelated: Examination documents the functional deficits that emerge as disease progresses.

• Brain (anatomy)Related: Findings can localize dysfunction to particular brain regions or pathways.

• Charles Scott SherringtonRelated: Reflex testing applies the kinds of organized responses Sherrington analyzed experimentally.

• CoenurosisRelated: Neurological findings help localize cysts in animals with suspected cerebral coenurosis.

• History of neurosurgeryRelated: Examining deficits let surgeons infer lesion locations before brain imaging existed.

• Human headRelated: Examiners assess the brain and cranial nerves through head and neck responses.

• HypoesthesiaRelated: Comparing sensation across body regions reveals the distribution of hypoesthesia.

• HyporeflexiaNarrower topic: Clinicians assess reflexes alongside strength, sensation, and coordination.

• Nervous System DiseasesRelated: Its findings help localize dysfunction and narrow possible causes.

• Rasmussen syndromeRelated: Examination documents deficits that can worsen as the affected hemisphere is injured.

• Reflex hammerNarrower topic: Tendon tapping is one component of this broader examination.
