This comprehensive review of research and best practice clinical management of spinal cord, neurodegenerative, and cerebral disorders is intended for both researchers and clinicians. Encompassing hereditary and acquired disorders from disease and accident, the book explores motor control disorders associated with stroke, dementia, seizure, encephalitis, and more. Covering disorders of both children and adults, the book discusses the latest advances in treatments related to neuroplasticity, neural tissue transplantation, and immunotherapy.
- Summarizes assessment, disease course, and best practice treatment
- Includes hereditary disorders and disorders from disease or accident
- Discusses advances in neuroplasticity, tissue transplantation, immunotherapy, and other treatments
- Reviews effects of dementia, stroke, seizure, encephalitis, cancer, and more
