At the Neurological Clinic in Ljubljana over the last six years these works Center for cognitive disorders (CKM). It is the only formalized unit within the neurology working in the field of dementia in Slovenia. The center strives establish a specialist team tertiary treatment of patients with mild cognitive impairment and dementia, and in particular those that are atypical, reversible, rapidly extending and / or who indicate in younger patients, whether they are associated to other neurological (particularly neurodegenerative) diseases. Although there HII for the operation of these activities enables extremely limited staffing (1 neurologist, psychologist 1 and 1 nurse) was in the six years witnessed significant progress.

You can choose between a simple computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging and all the functional brain imaging that we can make information about brain metabolism.
