Neuropsychology: A neuropsychological evaluation is warranted here, which is comprised of a battery of cognitive tests to determine what areas of the brain are affected by memory impairments of many kinds, and how those areas of the brain are interacting with other areas of the brain. A report is generated that is understandable by lay readers, and a list of recommendations is also comprised based on the tests.
