Differential Diagnosis in Neurological Diseases offers practical, problem-based differential diagnosis for the entire spectrum of neurological diseases in a prioritized order by incidence. The unique feature of this book is that the differential diagnosis entries are arranged based on the principle of first listing the most common possibilities. Additionally, acute-phase, potentially life-threatening or disabling uncommon diagnoses (the "diagnoses you don't want to miss") are highlighted. As a result, the most common and dangerous diseases are given more emphasis than other urgent, rare, or slowly progressive conditions. Differential Diagnosis in Neurological Diseases is written for practicing physicians and healthcare professionals interested in neurologic diseases, including residents in neurology, neurosurgery, and psychiatry, as well as internal medicine or family medicine residents, and of course medical students. Nurses will also find the structure of this book useful in their daily practice.
