This book provides a concise overview of the diagnosis and therapy of a wide variety of neuromuscular disorders, in tabulated form and with illustrative cases.
Treating neuromuscular disorders calls for a sound, step-by-step clinical approach based on differential diagnosis and laboratory investigations. Yet to date, there has been no single, compact book that offers all the relevant information related to the management of these disorders.
This book fills that gap, presenting the state of the art in the field and addressing practical problems together with their solutions. Each chapter covers disorder characteristics, clinical differentiating points, relevant investigations and their interpretation, available genetic testing, best management approaches and counselling. Illustrative cases provide valuable insights, while extensive tables and illustrations mean that information can be rapidly found.
Prof. Dr. Satish V. Khadilkar is one of the first few Indian neurologists to have pursued the subspecialty of neuromuscular disorders, a field in which he has made a mark in India and beyond. He was the first to describe a new clinical sign, the "hip abduction sign," which has since been included in international books. He contributed the first Indian accounts of sarcoglycanopathies and dysferlinopathies and was instrumental in finding the founder gene in calpainopahties in Agarwal community and the founder mutation in GNE myopathy in inhabitants of Rajasthan. He presently represents India at the Asian Oceanian Myology Center.
He has twice been honored with the best teacher award by Grant Medical College. His lecture series for MD students has been very popular and has been converted into digital teaching material, which is distributed free of charge. He has produced over 150 publications, and has written four and edited one neurology book. He has also been active in social work, serving as the trustee and secretary of the muscular dystrophy society and as the national Vice President of the multiple sclerosis society of India. He has received prestigious fellowships from the Indian Academy of Neurology, Indian College of Physicians and National Academy of Medical Sciences.
Dr Rakhil Yadav received his DM in Neurology from the prestigious Grant Medical College and Si J.J. Group of Hospital, going on to work as a lecturer in the same department. Subsequently, he trained in neuromuscular disorders at Paris. He is presently working as a consultant neurologist in Ahmedabad. He has contributed to and participated in various book chapters and peer-reviewed indexed publications, and has served as an ICMR project guide.
Dr Bhagyadhan Patel is currently a lecturer at the Neurology department of T.N.M.C and B.Y.L Nair Charitable Hospitals, Mumbai. Dr Patel has received a number of distinctions, including the National Young Achiever Award (2015), the Indian Academy of neurology (IAN) Summer school quiz (2015 and 2016) and the IAN-Bar-B-Quiz (2015). He has presented many papers, posters and cases at various national level conferences, and has published in international journals. Further, he is actively involved in teaching programs for postgraduate students in neurology and internal medicine.

Dateiformat: PDFKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat PDF zeigt auf jeder Hardware eine Buchseite stets identisch an. Daher ist eine PDF auch für ein komplexes Layout geeignet, wie es bei Lehr- und Fachbüchern verwendet wird (Bilder, Tabellen, Spalten, Fußnoten). Bei kleinen Displays von E-Readern oder Smartphones sind PDF leider eher nervig, weil zu viel Scrollen notwendig ist. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
