Pediatric Clinical Neurophysiology

by Karin Eeg-Olofsson

Overview

Pediatric Clinical Neurophysiology introduces clinical neurophysiology and its applications to the paediatric neurologist. It does not aim at being a textbook of either clinical neurophysiology or paediatric neurology, but to bridge these entities, as a handbook for the clinician. The focus is on the methods applied in the setting of a clinical neurophysiological laboratory. It will stimulate readers' interest in paediatric clinical neurophysiology in their daily clinical work with children.
