Neurology

Data

Official data in SubjectManager for the following academic year: 2024-2025

Topic

The aim of the period is to synthetize the previously obtained knowledge. Students have to perform the neurological physical examinations individually and they have to evaluate the neurological findings. Based on the history taking and physical signs, they need to plan further studies examinations to stand up the diagnoses. Finally, students need to indicate therapy for the examined patients.

Exam topics/questions

The final exam consists of two parts:

1. Practical (bedside) exam: taking history, evaluation of the neurological physical exam

2. Theoretical (oral) exam: questions A+B+C

Oral exam questions:

A: An important neurological diagnostic procedure (basics, indications, evaluation, risks).

B: Interpretation of an important/common neurological disorder (Proper definition, the knowledge of epidemiology, pathomechanism, neuropathology, clinical symptoms are required.)

C: Treatment of an important neurological disorder.
