Our Neurology department serves 10% of Norway’s population, and Ahus hosts one of the nation’s largest outpatient clinics for headache patients. Our research focuses on the epidemiology and practical clinical management of various headache disorders, including migraine, medication overuse headache, and menstrual migraine in women. Our clinical studies delve into multidisciplinary headache treatment and its impact on work participation, the management of headache disorders in primary care, and the diagnostic workup for acute headaches. Moreover, we actively participate in multiple randomized trials involving migraine and other headache disorders.
