Neuropathology
Juris Medicus has a neuropathologist who is double certified by the American Board of Pathology in both anatomic pathology and neuropathology.
A neuropathologist is a specialist who is extensively trained in the examination of tissues within the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord), peripheral nervous system, and skeletal muscle. They do not typically work with patients directly but rather examine biopsy or postmortem specimens within a lab setting where tissue tests can be performed. A neuropathology expert works closely with the clinical disciplines of neurology, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and forensic pathology in providing a medical diagnosis and investigating causes of death. Their work often contributes to neuroscience research on dementia and genetic conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, and multiple sclerosis.
