Parkinsonian Disorders in Clinical Practice Zusammenfassung

Parkinsonian Disorders in Clinical Practice Anthony Schapira

This book gives the reader an up-to-date, clear and logical idea of what caring for parkinsonian patients entails - a challenge that clinicians will face for many years to come. It is split into three sections:

Section 1: A compilation of the major brain lesions typically seen in PD

Section 2: Treatment options in PD

Section 3: 25 cases designed to test the reader and the practical application of the information supplied in the other sections.
