Behavioral Neurology is a specialized field within Neurology that focuses on understanding the complex interactions between the brain and behavior. It involves the assessment, diagnosis, and management of neurological conditions that affect cognition, emotion, and behavior. 

Behavioral Neurology specialists conduct comprehensive assessments to evaluate cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning. They use a variety of tests and measures to assess memory, attention, language, problem-solving, executive functions, mood, and personality. Through this assessment process, they can identify patterns and impairments that help guide accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

Behavioral Neurology specialists are skilled in managing a range of neurological conditions that impact behavior. They commonly address disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal dementia, Lewy body Dementia, Parkinson's disease, traumatic brain injury, stroke, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and other less common neurobehavioral disorders. These specialists consider the specific neurological aspects of each condition, as well as the resulting cognitive, emotional, and behavioral changes, to develop individualized treatment strategies.

Behavioral Neurology often involves a collaborative approach, so that specialists work closely with other healthcare professionals including general neurologists, neuropsychologists, psychiatrists, neurosurgeons, and rehabilitation therapists. This multidisciplinary collaboration ensures a comprehensive evaluation and integrated care plan for patients, addressing the specific neurobehavioral  aspects of each individual’s condition.

Treatment in Behavioral Neurology may involve a combination of approaches tailored to each individual's needs. These can include medication management, lifestyle modification, advice and counseling, cognitive rehabilitation, neurosurgical referral, psychotherapy, and behavioral interventions. The goal is to optimize brain function, and thus alleviate symptoms, improve daily functioning, and enhance quality of life.
