To diagnose neurologic affections it's necessary to use the additional examination methods besides medical examinations. Children's neurologists of International Medical Centre "ON Clinic" realize the following examinations in the presence of necessity:

The different apparatus-program complexes effecting already over some seances are applied for correction of the sight.
Children's Orthopedist
Musculoskeletal system diseases take one of leading positions among other children's illnesses. It's very difficult to diagnose them correctly at the first stages; therefore orthopedist's inspection is obligatory part of annual clinical examination. In ON Clinic babies are examined by an orthopedist multiple times beginning from first month of their life.
Congenital hip dislocation and congenital dysplasia of the hip joint are very widespread pathologies that become complicated with hip joints deformation, legs growth disordered and failure step if above pathologies are diagnosed late.
ON Clinic orthopedists have wide experience to diagnose these pathologies and they manage modern methods of treatment.
All month's babies are examined with ultrasound scanning of hip joints in ON Clinic.
Disturbed bearing, scoliosis and other backbone deformations as well foot pathologies are very serious pediatric problems.
Additional methods of examination are very important to diagnose correctly orthopedic illnesses. Orthopedist can prescribe the following examinations:
- X-ray examination with digital X-ray apparatus allowing to reduce ten time less radiation exposure on a child
- Ultra sound examination
Diagnostic Methods for orthopedic diseases:
Revelation of Patient complaints - most often there are the complaints of lameness, pain and deformation.
General examination includes an objective evaluation of height, proportionality of constitution, correct or failure bearing, walk.
Then a doctor examines body regions: head, neck, shoulder girdle, thorax, backbone, pelvis and extremities.
Thus a preliminary diagnose can be discovered:
- Scoliosis
- Deformation of upper or lower extremities
- Deformation of skeleton with rickety genesis
- Joints contractions of spastic or paralytic types
- Congenital torticollis and valgus
- Congenital hip dislocation and congenital dysplasia of the hip joints.
The orthopedists apply along with massage and remedial gymnastics other sparing methods: first of all maximum application of conservative treatment (inner soles, bearing corrector, etc.).
Early diagnostic of congenital pathology and opportune revelation of musculoskeletal system diseases are important factors for successful cure!

- Individual courses of treatment (dietary treatment, drug treatment, physiotherapeutic procedures, vaccination according to individual immunizations schedule)
Children's Cardiologist

- Early revelation of congenital organic pathology that allows treating it before development of complications.
