If interventional neurology is a total approximate 7yrs PG training; why not just do neurosurgery? Is there really a large difference in terms of lifestyle?

DocK said:Perhaps you could expound more on the differences in lifestyle and germane treatable illness specific to each field; you know, might me more useful than, say, throwing out analogies to cooking. Just my 2 cents...
so if i wanted to do work invovling new technologies that allowed communication to and from the brain with a computer or similar electronic device, what specialty should i go into???
im thinking neurology because they focus on the actual functioning of the nervous system.
but they dont actually do anything to the body physically do they?? or do they perform any "minimally invasive" procedures??
so with that im thinking maybe neurosurgery??? there would likely be some surgical procedures involved, however these would really be minimal, just to allow an electrical connection to a periphial or central nerve for communications in something.
or is this what interventional neurology would do??
