Movement Disorders Phenomenology (eBook, PDF)

Therapy and Management, Volume II

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This practical, case-based book offers an approach to diagnosis and treatment of movement disorders in the outpatient setting. The major hypokinetic and hyperkinetic disorders are considered in turn, with more than 1,000 videos illustrating the role of phenomenology in the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions. Discussion of the role of ancillary testing (imaging, genetic testing) and treatment options with medications, botulinum toxin injections, and surgical intervention are woven in to the discussion of cases throughout the book. Special attention is directed to pitfalls and perils of office-based practice.

This volume will be of interest to movement disorders neurologists and trainees, general neurologists, neurology residents, and any healthcare professional with an interest in exploring the application of the many treatments that have transformed movement disorders into a therapeutic field. Rather than a textbook of movement disorders, this volume will help the practicing clinician in guiding the thought process for evaluation and management of patients in the clinic.
