Brain stroke + dementia

2020-07-31 03:53:41
Can a neurologist tell a patient's condition who is paralised since 10 years and has been diagnosed with dementia recently, without suggesting any tests like MRI or any other that require him to be taken to the diagnostic centre? I want to avoid taking him outside given the covid situation.
