Clinical Neurophysiology - part of the esteemed
Oxford Specialist Handbooks in Neurology series - serves as a comprehensive bedside or outpatient-clinic pocket guide to understanding, performing, and interpretating common clinical neurophysiology techniques. Its sixteen chapters comprehensively cover the central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, and autonomic nervous system.
Technical descriptions are followed by common cases likely to be encountered in the clinical neurophysiology clinic, including cerebral disorders, epilepsy, neuromuscular disorders, intraoperative monitoring cases, autonomic function disorders, sleep disorders, movement disorders, visual-, auditory-, and vestibular-system disorders. Providing common reference values and up-to-date diagnostic criteria, this is an indispensable resource for trainee doctors, consultant/attending physicians, and data interpreters in clinical neurophysiology
