Contents:
Diagnostic reasoning in neurology and the neurologic history and examination -- Introduction to neuroimaging and cerebrospinal fluid analysis -- Overview of the anatomy of the nervous system -- The motor and somatosensory pathways and approach to weakness and sensory loss -- The spinal cord and approach to myelopathy -- The visual pathway and approach to visual loss -- The cerebral hemispheres and vascular syndromes -- The cerebellum and approach to ataxia -- The brainstem and cranial nerves -- Pupillary control and approach to anisocoria -- Extraocular movements and approach to diplopia -- The auditory and vestibular pathways approach to hearing loss and dizziness/vertigo -- Facial sensation and movement and approach to facial sensory and motor deficits -- Cranial nerves 1, 9, 10, 11, and 12 -- The peripheral nervous system and introduction to electromyography/nerve conduction studies -- Radiculopathy, plexopathy, and mononeuropathies of the upper extremity -- Radiculopathy, plexopathy, and mononeuropathies of the lower extremity -- Seizures and epilepsy -- Vascular diseases of the brain and spinal cord -- Infectious diseases of the nervous system -- Demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system -- Delirium, dementia, and rapidly progressive dementia -- Movement disorders -- Neoplastic and paraneoplastic disorders of the nervous system and neurologic complications of chemotherapy and radiation therapy -- Disorders of intracranial pressure -- Headache -- Peripheral neuropathy -- Motor neuron disease -- Motor neuron disease -- Disorders of the neuromuscular junction -- Dieseas of muscle -- Leukodystrophies and mitochondrial disorders -- Index.
Summary: Clinical Neurology and Neuroanatomy delivers a clear, logical discussion of the complex relationship between neuroanatomical structure and function and neurologic disease. Written in an engagin, concise style, this unique text offers a succint overview of fundamental neuroanatomy and the clincal localization principles necessary to diagnose and treat patients with neurologic diseases. Unlike other neurology textbooks that either focus on neuroanatomy or clincal neurology, Clincal Neurology and Neuroanatomy integrates the two in a manner which simulates the way neurologists learn, teach, and think. - Provided by publisher
