neurologic
Concerning the nerves
Neurologic means relating to the nervous system or the medical specialty that studies it.
A neurologic exam tests reflexes, coordination, and sensation.
Neurologic disorders include stroke, epilepsy, and Parkinson's disease.
The term is interchangeable with neurological, though neurologic is more common in American medical writing.
