Topical Diagnosis in Neurology Anatomy Physiology, Signs Symptoms, 6th Edition

The perennial neurology classic, updated and expanded

The sixth edition of Duus' classic Topical Diagnosis in Neurology
builds on the clear, integrated presentation of anatomy, function, and
disorders of the central nervous system that made it a success for
almost over five decades, serving as a quick reference for practitioners
and trainees alike. It elucidates the neuroanatomical pathways that
lead to specific clinical syndromes, and demonstrates how comprehensive
anatomical knowledge combined with a thorough neurological examination
can help localize and categorize a lesion and arrive at a differential
diagnosis.

The time-tested logical, thematic structure with useful
summaries, at the beginning of each chapter, and color-coded section
headings enable readers to distinguish neuroanatomical from clinical
material at a glance and enable efficient and time saving study.

Features of the sixth edition:

• New tables and clinical case examples
• Improved descriptions of neuroanatomical/neurophysiological basics in the context of clinical symptoms
• Twenty-three new illustrations, to a total of more than 400 illustrations
• A
  wide range of study aids and clinical correlations that support the
  emphasis on integrative medicine in the current medical school curricula

Topical
Diagnosis in Neurology is an ideal reference for neurologists and
neuroscientists who correlate neurological diseases with anatomical
location to arrive at a diagnosis or understand a clinical syndrome. It
is also an essential tool for trainees and advanced students who need a
solid grounding in key neurofunctional relationships.
