Diagnostics and Therapy
Yavor Yalachkov, MD, PhD
Neurology deals with diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system as well as the muscles. This includes diseases of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and neuromuscular transmission.
I am currently working at the practice of Dr. Erol Kocdemir in Frankfurt am Main, where I offer comprehensive, modern neurological diagnostics and therapy based on the latest scientific findings – individually tailored to your specific complaints.
I look forward to your inquiry.
Diagnostics
Thorough diagnosis is the foundation of every successful treatment. I take the time for a detailed medical history and neurological examination and, depending on the specific issue, employ modern diagnostic procedures.
-
Comprehensive neurological and neurocognitive examination
-
Electrophysiological diagnostics (e.g. nerve conduction velocities, EMG)
-
EEG (Electroencephalography)
-
Ultrasound examinations of the brain-supplying vessels (Doppler/duplex sonography)
-
Headache and dizziness diagnostics
-
Evaluation of memory and concentration disorders
-
Diagnostics for polyneuropathies, muscle diseases and movement disorders
-
Monitoring of disease progression and therapy in chronic neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, stroke, migraine, polyneuropathy, myasthenia gravis, and dementia.
Therapy and treatment specialization
I treat the entire spectrum of neurological diseases, including:
-
Diseases of the central nervous system (e.g., multiple sclerosis, inflammatory diseases, stroke)
-
Peripheral nerve diseases (e.g., polyneuropathies, nerve entrapment syndromes)
-
Neuromuscular diseases (e.g. myasthenia)
-
Headache disorders (e.g., migraine, tension headache, cluster headache)
-
Movement disorders (e.g. Parkinson's syndromes)
-
Dizziness and balance disorders
-
Epilepsy
-
Memory, concentration and performance disorders
