Techniques in Clinical Neurophysiology: A Practical Manual Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Edited by a multidisciplinary team of experts, this practical guide draws on the authoritative content presented in the definitive volume, Clinical Neurophysiology, 2nd Edition. It offers a complete exploration of clinical techniques associated with the neurosciences, building from a strong foundation in neuroanatomy and neurophysiology. Straightforward discussions explain exactly how to undertake appropriate neurophysiological investigations. Both biological and electrical scientific principles are addressed, as well as recording techniques, electrical potentials in normal subjects, and ways in which these are disturbed by physical factors or disease.

  • Full-color illustrations and tables summarize key concepts and information.
  • Material prepared by international multidisciplinary team of leading experts offers insight and expertise in all aspects of the discipline.
  • Balanced reviews examine the use and abuse of techniques, staff training, and medico-legal issues.
  • Advice is provided on setting up and running a department of clinical neurophysiology, as well as an integrated digital clinical neurophysiological laboratory including telemedicine.
  • Well-referenced sections reflect clinical applications through discussions of nerve conduction studies, electromyography, evoked potentials, EEG and EEG analysis, monitoring of epilepsy for surgery, recording in the neonatal and pediatric patient, monitoring during surgery and intensive care, sleep studies, and magnetoencephalography.
  • Content addresses the uses, limitations, advantages, calibration, etc. of digital instruments.
  • Chapters discuss the impact of more rigorous scientificstandards associated with digital technologies and the possibilities of quantification, statistical treatment, and advanced signal processing techniques.
