The Neurologic Examination: Scientific Basis for Clinical Diagnosis Illustrated Edition

The Neurologic Examination: Scientific Basis for Clinical Diagnosis Illustrated Edition

Whereas most book about the neurologic examination are disease and anatomy oriented, The Neurologic Examination: Scientific Basis for Clinical Diagnosis focuses on a pathophysiological approach to the nervous system. The authors emphasize that the scientific interpretation of symptoms obtained from carefully taking the patient’s history and noting signs found during physical examination are essential in the diagnosis of neurologic diseases, even if laboratory testing, such as electrophysiology and neuroimaging, are more widely used. This book aims to provide a bridge from the basic sciences such as anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, and molecular biology to the neurologic symptoms. Neurologic examinations provide the foundation for diagnosis, and only after a thorough and expertly executed examination can one begin to incorporate laboratory testing and treatment.

The Neurologic Examination: Scientific Basis for Clinical Diagnosis, based on the widely successful Japanese book Diagnosis of Neurological Diseases (Igakushoin, Japan, second edition 2013) by Dr. Shibasaki, hopes to revitalize the use of neurologic examinations before jumping into laboratory testing. Doing so can help cut down on time, patient and physician anxiety, and unnecessary testing expenses. This book is a must-read for all practicing neurologists, residents, and medical students.

Key Features Include
· The chapters are arranged in order of the actual steps in a neurologic examination;
· Highly illustrated with figures and tables indicative of the neurologic signs and symptoms that may appear during the given step; and
· 99 discussion boxes are inserted throughout to provide a more in-depth look at particular topics without interrupting the reading flow of the text.

Cosmetic and Clinical Applications of Botox and Dermal Fillers 

Cosmetic and Clinical Applications of Botox and Dermal Fillers 

There has been a recent explosion of public interest in less invasive facial rejuvenation products and treatments. At the forefront of this are the U.S. FDA Approvals of Botox and Xeomin injections.

In addition to the broad array of cosmetic applications for botulinum toxin, a new range of functional treatments is similarly beginning to emerge. These treatments include creating a “chemical” tarsorrhaphy to promote corneal healing, reducing thyroid-associated eyelid retraction, and―most compelling―reducing the frequency and severity of muscle tension and migraine headaches. These new applications significantly expand the scope of botulinum toxin treatments for medical disorders that have traditionally included the treatment of strabismus as well as a number of disorders of spasticity.

Cosmetic and Clinical Applications of Botox and Dermal Fillers, Third Edition by Dr. William J. Lipham and Dr. Jill S. Melicher continues to evolve and advance along with these applications, addressing important information for anyone interested in expanding his or her clinical practice in this area.

This updated and revised Third Edition also describes how to perform a broad range of treatments with a wide variety of dermal filler agents, including the newer hyaluronic acid and poly-l-lactic acid derivatives.

Topics inside the Third Edition include:

  • Treatment of blepharospasm, meige syndrome, and hemifacial spasm
  • Botulinum toxin as a treatment for functional disorders
  • Neuro-ophthalmic uses for botulinum toxin
  • Cosmetic applications of botulinum toxin
  • Periorbital rejuvenation using cosmetic filler agents and fat injection
  • Marketing botulinum toxin and dermal filler agents to build your practice

Additionally, an accompanying video website with nine supplemental videos is included to demonstrate the techniques discussed.

Video topics include:

  • Botulinum toxin for benign essential blepharospasm
  • Botulinum toxin for hemifacial spasm
  • Botulinum toxin for headaches
  • Botulinum toxin chemical brow lift
  • Botulinum toxin for forehead rhytids
  • Botulinum toxin for glabellar rhytids
  • Botulinum toxin for treatment of orbicularis lateral
  • Hyaluronic acid filler for perioral rejuvenation
  • Hyaluronic acid filler for the nasolabial fold

Cosmetic and Clinical Applications of Botox and Dermal Fillers, Third Edition is perfect for anyone interested in the use of Botox and dermal filler agents for a wide variety of functional and minimally invasive facial rejuvenation procedures. General ophthalmologists, anterior segment surgeons, dermatologists, facial plastic surgeons, residents, and fellows alike will benefit from adding this valuable book and video website to their collection.
