Up-to-date and easy to read, Essentials of Clinical Neurophysiology, Fourth Edition, details the basics of normal and abnormal neurologic function and provides authoritative clinical guidance on performing and interpreting today's full range of neurophysiologic studies. Drs. Karl E. Misulis and Thomas C. Head cover recent advances in technology as well as changes in training and practice patterns for EEG, EMG, EP, intraoperative monitoring, sleep studies, and autonomic testing. Offering a practical overview of this complex field, this one-stop resource is an excellent tool for board review and preparation.
