Neurology is primarily characterized by a variety of diseases which
seem very similar and are therefore difficult to distinguish
between. Skill at differential diagnosis is therefore absolutely
paramount.
"Neurological Differential Diagnosis" is a streamlined handbook
of "prioritized" differential diagnosis, to be used both in
clinical practice and for exam review.
By presenting differential diagnosis in order of frequency and
importance, this book provides a practical handbook for clinicians
in training, as well as a potential resource for quick board
review. Whilst the book covers the most important syndromes and
disease entities, readers are referred to other texts for more
exhaustive differentials. By limiting differentials in this way -
to the most likely and most serious diagnoses - the reader can more
easily recall relevant disease processes when faced with a
particular clinical situation, whether it be a patient in the
emergency room or a difficult question on the board
examination.
The book specifically targets neurology residents and fellows,
with overlap to neurosurgery and psychiatry. Internal medicine
physicians with an interest in neurological problems and medical
students looking for an edge in clinical neuroscience would also
benefit from this text.
The content is primarily mid-level material, in a pedagogic
format.
In order to organize the students' thought processes concise
tables and line drawing templates are included. The book is
organized into broad chapters by type of disorder and some overlap
occurs between particular chapters.
