The Neurologic Examination
註釋The Neurologic Examination: Scientific Basis for Clinical Diagnosis provides a bridge from basic neuroscience such as anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and molecular biology to clinical symptomatology. Neurologic examinations provide the foundation for diagnosis, and only after a thorough and expertly executed examination can one begin to incorporate laboratory testing and treatment. In contrast with most of the previously published books of clinical neurology which are disease- or anatomy-oriented, this book is organized in terms of functional anatomy of the nervous system. Correct interpretation of symptoms and signs based on modern scientific knowledge is of utmost importance in the diagnosis of neurological diseases. For this purpose, the importance of careful history-taking and physical examination is emphasized, and chapters are arranged in the order of actual steps of neurologic examination. In this new editions, the authors have updated all materials included within. With up-to-date references, new boxes to discuss specific topics of modern interest, and additional chapters and figures, this second edition of The Neurologic Examination: Scientific Basis for Clinical Diagnosis is crucial to neurologists, neurosurgeons, clinicians, and technicians.
