    Area of Science:

    • Cardiology
    • Neurology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Neurological disorders frequently present with or are associated with myocardial disease.
    • Cardiovascular involvement is a common comorbidity in various neurological conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the utility of echocardiography in managing neurological disorders.
    • To demonstrate the role of echocardiography in patients with co-existing neurological and cardiovascular conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical cases and literature.
    • Application of echocardiography for cardiac assessment in neurological patients.

    Main Results:

    • Echocardiography is effective in evaluating myocardial function in patients with neurological diseases.
    • The study identified specific neurological conditions where cardiac assessment is crucial.

    Conclusions:

    • Echocardiography is an essential tool for the comprehensive management of patients with neurological disorders and associated cardiovascular system involvement.
    • Early cardiac evaluation can improve patient outcomes in conditions like hydrocephalus, tuberous sclerosis, and Friedreich ataxia.
