Neuroloogilise

Neuroloogilise is the genitive singular form of the Estonian adjective neuroloogiline, meaning neurological. It is used to express relation to neurology or the nervous system, and to describe things associated with neurological conditions, examinations, or research. As a grammatical form, neuroloogilise occurs when an attributive adjective modifies a noun in the genitive case, for example in phrases like neuroloogilise haiguse (of a neurological disease) or neuroloogilise uuringu tulemused (the results of a neurological examination).

Etymology and linguistic notes: the word derives from neuroloogia, the Estonian term for neurology, itself formed from the Greek roots neuron (nerve) and logos (study). The adjective neuroloogiline is used to denote characteristics, processes, or entities pertaining to neurology. In Estonian, adjectives agree with the noun they modify in number, gender, and case; thus neuroloogiline becomes neuroloogilise in the genitive singular form.

Usage and context: neuroloogiline is common in medical and scientific writing, clinical notes, and patient records to specify that a finding, symptom, or procedure relates to neurology. Examples include neuroloogilise uuringu tulemused, neuroloogilise haigusega seotud sümptomid, or neuroloogilise hindamise plan. It is not a separate medical discipline itself, but a descriptive term used within the broader field of neurology (neuroloogia).
