Description
The disorders of the central and peripheral nervous system are studied, diagnosed and treated under neurology. These conditions include Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, neuromuscular diseases, neuropathy, and infections and tumors of the nervous system, among others. Such disorders may affect the peripheral, central or autonomic nervous system. These are diagnosed using a range of diagnostic techniques from MRI, CAT and EEG scans to nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography. Lumbar puncture is a common procedure for assessing a patient's cerebrospinal fluid. Surgical interventions for the management of neurological disorders can be a viable option in certain cases, while in others medications and physiotherapy are recommended management strategies. An active area of research in neurology is the role of genetics in the development of neurologic diseases. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to neurology. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. It is meant for students who are looking for an elaborate reference text on neurology.
