Brain scan from our German doctor (9)

I believe the answer is:

neurogram

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'brain scan' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'our german doctor' is the wordplay.
'doctor' is an anagram indicator.
'our'+'german'='ourgerman'
'ourgerman' with letters rearranged gives 'NEUROGRAM'.

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for neurogram that I've seen before include "Permanent impression" , "trace" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
