The BT CT Test measures bleeding time and clotting time to assess the blood’s clotting ability.

No, fasting is not required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.

A healthcare provider makes a small incision on your skin to measure bleeding time and tests how long it takes for your blood to clot in a tube.

The BT CT Test helps diagnose bleeding disorders like haemophilia and clotting disorders such as thrombocytopenia.

The BT CT Test involves minimal risks, such as minor bleeding or bruising at the site of the incision.

Neurology is the branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of nervous system disorders, including the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves.

Neurologists treat conditions such as stroke, epilepsy, migraines, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and other neurological disorders.

You should see a neurologist if you experience symptoms such as severe headaches, chronic pain, dizziness, numbness, tingling, muscle weakness, or problems with coordination or memory.

Neurologists use tests such as MRI, CT scans, EEG, EMG, nerve conduction studies, lumbar punctures, and blood tests to diagnose neurological conditions.

Neurologists diagnose and treat neurological disorders with medication and other non-surgical methods, while neurosurgeons perform surgical procedures on the brain, spine, and nerves.

Surgery is needed when a hernia causes pain, discomfort, or complications like strangulation, where blood supply to the tissue is cut off.
