Neuroradiology is a subspecialty of radiology focusing on the diagnosis and characterization of abnormalities of the central and peripheral nervous system, spine, and head and neck using neuroimaging techniques.

They use medical equipment, such as computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging machines, to identify problems.
