Aminoff's Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Disorders
Autor Michael J. Aminoff, Jeffrey W. Ralph, Francis Walkeren Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 apr 2024
Succinct yet comprehensive, Aminoff's Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Disorders, 4th Edition, provides expert information and guidance on the clinical, electrodiagnostic, and imaging aspects of neuromuscular disorders. Fully updated, it reflects important advances in the field, including an improved understanding of the molecular and genetic basis of neuromuscular disease, an expanded use of next-generation genetic testing, refinements in electrodiagnosis, and the use of ultrasound imaging techniques to evaluate the peripheral nervous system. In-depth discussions of disease states, as well as the evidence supporting the use of electrodiagnostic and imaging techniques, moves this reference from simply answering the question "How? to also answering "Why?

INTRODUCTION
1. Approach to Neuromuscular Diagnosis
(The aim of this new chapter is to share the thought process that experienced neuromuscular clinician use in making diagnoses.)
2. Electrodiagnostic Methods for the Study of Nerve and Muscle
BASIC ASPECTS
3. Nerve Physiology
4. Neuromuscular Junction Physiology
5. Muscle Physiology and the Motor Unit
6. Electrodiagnostic Apparatus
7. General Aspects of Needle Electromyography
8. Clinical Aspects of Needle Electromyography
9. Nerve Conduction Studies: Basic Principles and Pathologic Correlations
10. Quantitative and Related Techniques of Electromyography
11. Other Electrodiagnostic Techniques for the Evaluation of Neuromuscular Disorders
12. Electrophysiologic Evaluation of the Autonomic Nervous System
13. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Nerve and Muscle in Health and Disease
(A brief review of MR technology will be presented. The MR characteristics of healthy muscle and nerve will then be shared. Then, the imaging correlates to various diseases of muscle and nerve will be discussed.)
14. Neuromuscular Ultrasound
(The technology and apparatus will first be introduced. The technique of conducting an evaluation will be presented. The imaging characteristics of normal muscle and nerve will be discussed before moving to a discussion of the correlates to common disease of muscle and nerve.)
CLINICAL ASPECTS
