Neurorehabilitation following a TIA: What’s involved?

Transient ischaemic attack (TIA), often referred to as a mini-stroke, is a temporary interruption in blood flow to the brain, resulting in transient neurological symptoms. While TIAs typically resolve within 24 hours, they serve as warning signs of an increased risk of a full-blown stroke. Neurorehabilitation following a TIA plays a crucial role in minimising the risk of future strokes and optimising recovery. Leading consultant neurologist, stroke and rehabilitation physician Dr Arvind Chandratheva who practises at the Cleveland Clinic Rehabilitation Unit, has provided a detailed guide about this process, below.

Navigating brain tumour recovery

Neuroimages post-treatment are like before-and-after snapshots, vital for monitoring brain tumour impact. Neuroradiologists face the challenge of distinguishing tumour relapse from treatment effects. In his latest online article, Professor Sotirios Bisadas explores advanced imaging techniques, follow-up frequency, and the role of technology and skilled neuroradiologists in accurate diagnosis.

MRI for brain tumours: how does it work?

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses powerful magnets and radio waves to generate detailed images of the body's internal structures, and is an integral method for assessing brain tumours. Revered neuroradiologist Professor Sotirios Bisdas explains how MRIs are used to diagnose brain tumours, the difference between malignant and benign tumours, and how MRI results can affect treatment plans.

Living with Parkinson's disease: An expert's guide

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurological condition caused by a lack of dopamine in the substantia nigra (this is in the mid-brain and is responsible for producing dopamine). Dopamine helps the body to function properly and is responsible for the most important bodily functions such as eating, walking and talking. It’s responsible for movement. A lack of dopamine causes tremors, motor problems and difficulty carrying out basic tasks. Dr Tahira Choudry tells us more about Parkinson’s disease and the different stages involved.
