E-book Neurology and Neurosurgery
One of the few comprehensive, interdisciplinary centers in the United States devoted to diagnosis and treatment of concussion, NYU Langone’s Concussion Center has treated over 1,000 patients since it was established in the spring of 2013. The center maintains a concussionpatient registry, and is currently investigating the use of the King-Devick Test® for eye movement, and other quickly administered cognitive and balance screens for sideline concussion diagnosis. The Center’s research on the King-Devick Test was profiled by the American Academy of Neurology. Early in 2014, the Neurosurgery Department opened its new radiosurgery suite, a completely renovated facility housing a Leksell Gamma Knife® Perfexion™. With the new space, the department also saw an impressive 15 percent increase in patient volume, to 459 procedures for the year, making NYU Langone’s Gamma Knife® practice the third-largest in the United States, and the most active in the New York metropolitan area.
