What is the Difference Between Neurosurgery and Neurology?
Neurology is a specialty that diagnoses and treats neurological diseases (multiple sclerosis, stroke, parkinson, epilepsy, etc.). Both branches are in close relationship. In many diseases, they are in an exchange of ideas with each other. Neurosurgery, on the other hand, performs the medical and surgical treatments of the diseases listed above.
