Neurology

Neurology deals with the diagnosis and treatment of all categories of conditions and diseases involving the central and peripheral nervous systems (and their subdivisions, the autonomic and somatic nervous systems), including their coverings, blood vessels, and all effector tissue, such as muscle.
