Neurosciences, a multidisciplinary field, encompasses the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders related to the brain and nervous system. Our Department of Neurosciences is at the forefront of advancing our understanding of the nervous system and providing compassionate, cutting-edge care to our patients.
Our Department of Neurosciences comprises specialized units and expert teams, each focused on specific aspects of neurological care:
Our Neurosciences Department offers a wide range of specialized services to meet the unique needs of our patients:
At Marengo Asia Hospital, our patients are at the heart of everything we do. Our Neurosciences Department is dedicated to delivering patient-centered care that prioritizes individual needs and concerns. We understand that neurological conditions can be challenging, both for patients and their families, and we are here to provide support, information, and guidance throughout the journey to recovery.
An auditory brainstem implant is an advanced procedure applied to facilitate hearing, which cannot be achieved with conventional cochlear implants. ABIs are very helpful in cases where the auditory nerve is either severely damaged or missing, such that a sound signal cannot b...

ABIs are very helpful in cases where the auditory nerve is either severely damaged or missing, such that a sound signal cannot be carried to the brain.
Read MoreAwake brain surgery is the advanced technique used in treating various types of brain disorders, be it tumours, epilepsy, or other such conditions. Unlike traditional brain surgery, with complete anesthetization of the patient, awake brain surgery is conducted on a conscious patient because this allows the neurosurgeon to witness the system function in real-time.

A neurological rehab program can support patients to promote bodily functions, mitigate symptoms and enhance their overall well-being.
Read MoreCarotid angioplasty and stenting are procedures that open clogged arteries in the brain to reinstate the blood flow. This procedure is often done to treat or avert the risk of strokes. The carotid arteries are situated on either side of the neck, these are the primary arteries supplying blood to the brain. Fatty deposits (plaque) can clog arteries that impede or slow down blood flow to the brain and the condition is known as carotid artery disease, which can lead to stroke.

Read MoreSpinal fusion is a surgery done to permanently connect two or more vertebrae in the spine, removing movement between them. This surgery comprises specific techniques formulated to imitate the normal healing process of broken or damaged bones. During this surgery, your neurosurgeon keeps bone or a bone-like material within the space between two spinal vertebrae. Metal plates, screws, and rods are used to hold on the vertebrae together so that they can heal into one solid unit.
Read MoreThis radiotherapy uses several accurately focused radiation beams to treat cancers and problems in the brain, neck, lungs, liver, spine and other regions of the body. Stereotactic radiosurgery is not surgery, as there’s no incision but instead uses 3D imaging to target high doses of radiation to the affected region with very less impact on the surrounding healthy tissue. It works by destroying the DNA of the targeted cells, reducing the ability to reproduce, and thereby making the tumours shrink. Stereotactic radiosurgery of the brain and spine is typically completed in one session.
