Περιγραφή
A comprehensive and multidisciplinary guide to understanding and treating a wide range of movement disorders, including parkinsonisms, tremor, tics, dystonia, chorea, ballism and myoclonus. Split into five sections, the first is a basic introduction to the subject, covering the principles of human motor behavior and functional anatomy. The next three sections discuss movement disorders in depth, grouped into hypokinetic, hyperkinetic, and dyscoordinative and otherwise inappropriate motor behaviours, covering clinical manifestations, diagnostic features and therapeutic strategies. The last section explores the different ways of objectifying selected behavioral movement disorders. 90 videos, hosted online, and over 200 figures illustrate the concepts covered in the book, offering a visual reference for the disorders discussed. This compendium offers an essential tool to recognize, interpret and understand the clinical manifestations and underlying disorders of neurological movement disorders, and to select the best therapeutic strategies.
- 90 videos and over 200 colour figures illustrate the concepts covered in the book and help readers connect to the material
- Split into five sections, allowing readers to quickly access necessary information and enabling clinicians to concentrate on their desired area of knowledge
- Written and edited by a team of global experts, bringing diverse experience and knowledge bases to the book, with specialties encompassing rehabilitation medicine, neurosurgery and psychiatry
- Includes access to a HTML version of the text on Cambridge Core, where you can view inline videos and high-resolution images
