Fully updated and revised based on invaluable student feedback, the sixth edition of Mayo Clinic Medical Neurosciences: Organized by Neurologic System and Level presents a comprehensive and systematic approach to the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the nervous system. This edition is inspired by the neurologist’s method of solving clinical problems, making it an indispensable resource for medical professionals and students alike.
This essential volume is divided into four informative sections:
- An overview of the neurosciences necessary for understanding anatomical localization and pathophysiologic characterization of neurologic disorders.
- A detailed approach to localizing lesions in the seven longitudinal systems of the nervous system.
- A thorough examination of localizing lesions in the four horizontal levels of the nervous system.
- A collection of clinical problems that provide practical applications of the concepts discussed.
This book not only serves as a vital neuroscience framework for neurologists in clinical settings but also stands out as an invaluable resource for those preparing for neurology and psychiatry board certifications. It is the perfect guide for all medical students, as well as residents in neurology, psychiatry, and physical medicine, particularly at the early stages of their training.
New to This Edition:
- A chapter dedicated to multiple-choice questions for self-assessment.
- In-depth discussions on emerging concepts in molecular, cellular, and system neurosciences.
- New chapters exploring emotion and consciousness systems.
