Neurology in Clinical Practice brings you the most current clinical neurology through a comprehensive text, detailed color images, and video demonstrations. Drs. Daroff, Fenichel, Jankovic and Mazziotta, along with more than 150 expert contributors, present coverage of interventional neuroradiology, neurointensive care, prion diseases and their diagnoses, neurogenetics, and many other new developments. Online at www.expertconsult.com, you'll have access to a downloadable image library, videos, and the fully searchable text for the dynamic, multimedia content you need to apply the latest approaches in diagnosis and management. Find answers easily through an intuitive organization by both symptom and grouping of diseases that mirrors the way you practice. Diagnose and manage the full range of neurological disorders with authoritative and up-to-date guidance. Refer to key information at-a-glance through a full-color design and layout that makes the book easier to consult
