The Atlas of Functional Neuroanatomy, Third Edition addresses this challenge by presenting a clear visual guide to the human central nervous system. This edition has been completely reorganized to facilitate learning the structure and function of the CNS. The material is suitable for medical students, non-neurology students, and other health professionals who seek a solid understanding of the brain."--Back cover.
The First Textbook to Take an Integrative Approach to Neurological Diagnosis This introductory, full-color text teaches students and practitioners how to combine neurological history and physical examination so they can localize pathologies within the nervous system and determine appropriate treatment. It provides a wealth of illustrations that emphasize the functioning nervous system, in addition to an invaluable DVD for further exploration and access to a state-of-the-art website with additional materials that are updated periodically. Give Practitioners the Confidence to Differentiate, Diagnose, and Build Treatment Plans Provides a wealth of illustrations that emphasize the functioning nervous system Neuroanatomical drawings related to case studies Informative tables with relevant clinical data Radiographic images, EEGS, microscopic images, and other diagnostic tools Includes an invaluable DVD for further exploration User-friendly worksheets to provide a proven methodology for evaluation All color illustrations from the book Flash animations of various pathways, reflexes, and circuits Neuroimaging primer to boost understanding of CT and MRI sequences Supplementary e-cases and diagnostic images A wealth of references for self-guided study Offers access to a state-of-the-art website All of the features on the DVD Additional supplementary materials to be added periodically Demystifies Neurological Problem Solving Section I: Covers the Basics of Neurological Problem Solving Provides a full synopsis of the nervous system Explains key aspects of the neurological examination Delves into clinical problem solving Includes a Fail Safe Localization/Etiology Checklist Covers lesions caused by trauma, muscle diseases, genetic and degenerative diseases, vascular problems, drugs and toxins, infections, and autoimmune disorders Section II: Applies the Basics to Clinical Cases Presents full case examinations of a nine-member fictional family Demonstrates clinical data extraction, definition of main clinical points, relevant neuroanatomy, and the localization process Covers a wide range of disease processes, including spinal cord syndromes and traumas, vascular injury, and seizures Details autoimmune, neoplastic, degenerative, and genetic disorders Differentiates between various causes of seizures, stroke, and Parkinsonism Provides complete case summaries, treatment, management, and outcomes

This innovative textbook is modelled on problem-based learning. It bridges the gap between academic neuroanatomy and clinical neurology and effectively takes the reader from the classroom to the clinic, so that learning can be applied in practice. This second edition has been updated and expanded to include many more clinical cases within both the book and the accompanying Wweb site. This book and the associated Web site will be of practical value to all the professionals who deal with people who have neurological conditions, as well as being invaluable to medical students and residents. This includes physiatrists (rehabilitation medicine specialists), physiotherapists, occupational therapists and speech therapists, and nurses who specialize in the care of neurological patients. We think that this text will also be of value for family physicians and specialists in internal medicine and pediatrics, all of whom must differentiate between organic pathology of the nervous system and other conditions.
