Description
This text covers the basics of normal and abnormal neurologic function and provides complete clinical guidance on performing and interpreting
today's full range of diagnostic studies, including EEG, EMG, NCS, EP, and sleep studies. The 3rd Edition includes a CD-ROM with all
the contents of the book in HTML format step-by-step instructions for various techniques, accompanied by videos, photographs, and diagrams
(including details on electrode placement and arrays) technical details about the equipment mathematical derivations of the formulae
in the text additional sample recordings with expert interpretations and questions and answers for self-assessment.
