Neurosciences
 From diagnosing a disorder to helping a patient recover post-surgery, we provide services that are dedicated to treating and improving the quality of life for patients. We treat many conditions:
- Cerebral vascular disease — a condition that affects the blood vessels in the brain
- Aneurysms — when an artery or vein bulges because of weakening of a vessel wall
- Brain trauma — any trauma to the brain or spinal system.
- Parkinson's Disease — a debilitative disorder that decreases motor function
- Multiple Sclerosis — a degenerative condition that results in nerve deterioration
- Sleep Apnea — a disorder characterized by an interruption in breathing that results in lack of sleep
Capabilities
Our neurological capabilities include:
- Neuro-oncology unit that focuses exclusively on cancer treatment and patient recovery
- Management programs to aid in pain control and seizure control
We use the latest technology
Surgeons and specialists use the latest technology to perform intricate procedures that get patients out the door and back to their daily routines.
- Diagnosis: Equipment includes ultrasound 3-D and 4-D imagery that scan the brain and aid in the process of diagnosis. Also, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Ultrafast CT Scanners help physicians detect and diagnose neurological conditions.
- Treatment: In 2003, Cheyenne Regional Medical Center was the first medical center in the United States to use the Stealth Treon system to remove a brain tumor. The system provides a surgeon with an exact, three-dimensional view of the surgical area. This allows for less-invasive procedures and decreases the risk of brain and nerve damage during operations.
The Recovery Process…
Acute Rehabilitation and Transitional Care
The Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) established standards of quality to use as guidelines in rehabilitative care. We are the only hospital in Wyoming to be given CARF accreditation — the highest form of recognition in rehabilitative care.
