About Electrodiagnosis In Diseases Of Nerve And
Product Description Here is the Fourth Edition of the classic text Electrodiagnosis in Diseases of Nerve and Muscle: Principles and Practice. With each subsequent edition, Dr. Kimura has built upon his extensive experience teaching electromyography (EMG) around the world and has transferred his knowledge to the book. It is intended for clinicians who perform electrodiagnostic procedures as an extension of their clinical examination, and will be of value to neurologists and physiatrists who are interested in neuromuscular disorders and noninvasive electrodiagnostic methods, particularly those practicing electromyography (EMG). The book provides a comprehensive review of most peripheral nerve and muscle diseases, including specific techniques and locations for performing each test. While the book has been thoroughly updated to reflect the growth that has been made in the field since 2001, a DVD has also been added to the book, allowing the readers to watch and listen to various types of normal and abnormal EMG activities. Review "The new edition...will be welcomed not only by trainees in electrodiagnostic medicine but by established physicians who seek a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the specialty by one of its masters. Jun Kimura- a former editor-in-chief of the journal Muscle and Nerve and a past president of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology-has made seminal personal contributions to the field and is recognized widely as an authority on electromyography and electrodiagnosis. His experience over many years as a physician, investigator, and teacher has been distilled to produce this outstanding, comprehensive new edition. The volume...will serve as a terrific informational resource as well as facilitating daily practice for both new and established specialists. It is a mine of information." -- Michael J. Aminoff, MD, DSc, FRCP, Distinguished Professor and Executive Vice Chair, Department of Neurology, University of California, San Francisco, CA "This Fourth Edition...lives up to all expectations - updating a classic reference that has been the "go-to" resource for a generation of electromyographers and neuromuscular clinicians the past thirty years. Major sections have been revised, new material included, outdated references removed, and the text streamlined to emphasis current concepts and practice. The clearly written and well-illustrated descriptions of the electrodiagnostic evaluation and expected results in health and disease are both practical and comprehensive, making the book appropriate for trainees and veteran electromyographers alike. This resource is a worthy companion of every physician who evaluates patients with suspected neuromuscular disorders. It is a resource to be read and consulted on a regular basis, not one that will collect dust on the owner's bookshelf." -- James W. Albers, MD, PhD, Emeritus Professor of Neurology, University of Michigan Health System, Ann Arbor, MI "This edition of Kimura is the most complete, authoritative, up to date, and readable text on electrodiagnosis available today. It is a multi-layered resource that will serve not only as a primer for the EMG beginner, but also as a reference text for the experienced electrodiagnostic consultant." -- Kerry Levin MD, Chairman, Department of Neurology, Director, Neuromuscular Center, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH "Great News - Jun Kimura's Electrodiagnosis in Diseases of Nerve and Muscle - Principles and Practice, Fourth Edition is out. Even though several decades have passed since this book was first conceived, it remains the Gold-Standard in the discipline and no text on the subject has out-performed this bible...A new and welcome feature of the 4th Edition is the creation of a CD. This adds important practical value to the book, allowing readers to watch and listen to various types of normal and abnormal EMG activities. This is a valuable tool for those preparing for Certification in EMG...Kimu
