The Adult Neuropsychology Division of the Neurology
Department offers assessment and consultation to evaluate emotional and
cognitive functioning in patients with known or suspected brain dysfunction.
Neuropsychological evaluation is clinically indicated and medically necessary
when patients show signs or symptoms of global intellectual decline or specific
cognitive deficits such as memory problems, language disorders, visuospatial
perceptual abnormalities, or decline in problem-solving skills. Neuropsychological
evaluation yields information to assist in diagnosis, specify cognitive
strengths and weaknesses, and monitor changes following neurosurgical
procedures or due to brain trauma, multiple sclerosis, cerebrovascular disease,
neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease,
epilepsy, HIV, as well as other conditions that can affect emotional and
cognitive functioning. Referrals are generally made by a neurologist, surgeon,
psychiatrists, or primary care physician.
