Topical Diagnosis in Neurology: Anatomy, Physiology, Signs, Symptons

by Mathias Baehr

Topical Diagnosis in Neurology: Anatomy, Physiology, Signs, Symptons Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Duus' Topical Diagnosis in Neurology has been a valuable aid to generations of medical students and physicians all over the world. It has appeared in 14 languages and has been continually updated at short intervals to take account of newly gained knowledge. The current, comprehensively revised edition was written by a new team of authors to preserve the positive aspects that have won this book a wide and appreciative audience.

Key features include:

-An integrated presentation of the anatomy, physiology, and clinical syndromes of the nervous system which benefits both medical students and practicing physicians

-A transdisciplinary approach which breaks down the traditional, artificial separation of preclinical from clinical knowledge and basic science from human neurology, making this text suitable for the contemporary medical school curriculum

-Updated content in a layout with better signposting, four-color anatomical drawings throughout, modernized case histories (including numerous CT and MR images), and new first and last chapters on the fundamental elements of the nervous system and the CNS blood supply

Book News Annotation:

This complete revision reflects the most recent advances in theory and practice and includes new case studies, images and color illustrations. It covers the basic elements of the nervous system, including neurons and synapses, neurotransmitters and receptors, glial cells, and development, and the peripheral and central components of the somatosensory system and their processing. It covers the motor system (central and peripheral components and lesions affecting them, brainstem (surface anatomy and topography, cranial nerves, and disorders), cerebellum structures, connections and disorders), the diencephalon and autonomic nervous system, the limbic system, basal ganglia, cerebrum (including cerebral white matter), coverings of the brain and spinal cord and cerebrospinal fluid, and blood supply and vascular disorders for the entire system. Although sized as a pocket guide, this can also serve as a first desktop reference.
