Clinical
Neuropsychological Services
The Neuropsychology Center provides comprehensive neuropsychological assessment
and integrated neurocognitive remediation. The Neuropsychology Center
employs the most scientifically-validated neuropsychological test battery
currently available for the assessment of brain-behavior function in adult and
children.
Comprehensive
Neuropsychological Assessment
The Neuropsychology Center utilizes a standard neuropsychological battery
approach for the assessment of brain-related function. The test battery
employed is the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Test Battery and
allied procedures. This battery of tests provides a comprehensive evaluation of
an individual's brain-behavior function in order to determine problems in
neurocognitive function associated with various brain disorders. This
evaluation helps specify a patient's cognitive strengths and weaknesses related
to neurological dysfunction, determine differential contributions of neurologic
and psychiatric factors in a patient's presenting problems, and contribute to
decisions regarding current and future independent function. In addition, the
results can be directly integrated into a comprehensive neurocognitive
remediation program.
A typical clinical neuropsychological evaluation provided by The Neuropsychology Center involves 2 days of patient testing. The evaluation includes a review of medical records and clinical history, as well as the interpretation of testing data. Then, each patient receives a feedback interpretive session where results of the tests are given, recommendations are made, questions are answered, and when necessary, coordination with various healthcare or other related professionals is offered.
The Neuropsychology Center provides comprehensive neuropsychological assessments to both the adult and child populations. The faculty at The Neuropsychology Center have extensive experience with various neurological disorders including Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, head injury, cerebrovascular disease, brain tumor, toxic injuries, developmental and learning disabilities, and other neurological disorders.
