Thorough evaluation of patient complaints, accurate interpretation of clinical signs, and assessment of gross and microscopic features are the keys to accurate neuropathologic diagnosis. With this quick reference, readers will sharpen their analytical skills and enhance their interpretive abilities—using an accessible and reader-friendly format that takes you from initial findings to differential diagnosis. The book’s broad-based coverage addresses the entire neuropathology areas, including skeletal muscle and nerve pathology, non-neoplastic neuropathology and pediatric neuropathology. An easy-to-follow format groups disease processes by common pathologic features, and an encyclopedic narrative style makes quick-referencing easy. Look inside and explore… • Broad-based coverage addresses the entire neuropathology areas, including skeletal muscle and nerve pathology, non-neoplastic neuropathology and pediatric neuropathology. • Easy-to-follow format groups disease processes by common pathologic features. • Encyclopedic narrative style makes quick-referencing easy. • Practical approach is based on a comprehensive list of gross and microscopic features, helping you understand and interpret your findings.
