Abstract
Purpose: As the nation is becoming an aging society, there is an increasing number of the patient who has Neuroscience disease. So it is necessary to build a facility which provides specialized health care. Methods: Field surveys to facilities and analysis to the floor plan have been conducted in order to suggest adequate architectural composition to the specialized neuroscience center and the dimensions of rooms. Results: The result of this study can be summarized into six points which contain guide to how to organize the specialized neuroscience center. One of the most important things in this study is to suggest the architectural type which provides efficient collaborating system between the outpatient and angiography unit. Implications: It can be said that this paper can be useful research material when the architect tries to plan the specialized neuroscience center.
