Excellent- More about MIMICS of Epileptic Seizures
A comprehensive text addressing almost all conditions mentioned by the International League Against Epilepsy as Imitators of Epilepsy in 2017. A total of 22 chapters and 23 commentaries along with several illustrative case studies are included. Practical aspects of differentiating epileptic seizures from their imitators are highlighted in a problem-oriented manner.
Epilepsy is a common condition where sudden bursts of electrical activity in the brain cause seizures or fits. There are lots of possible symptoms of epileptic seizures, including uncontrollable shaking or loss of awareness of surroundings. There are many other disorders with symptoms that mimic those of epilepsy, thus accurate diagnosis is essential for effective treatment.
This book is a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis of disorders that may mimic epilepsy.
Divided into 22 sections, each chapter covers a different epilepsy imitator presented as an analytical discourse. A number of case studies are also included.
The book concludes with discussion on the use of EEG (a test that detects electrical activity in the brain using small, metal discs (electrodes) attached to the scalp) and its potential pitfalls.
Also included, is a chapter dedicated to Sir William Gowers, a British neurologist at the forefront of the diagnosis and treatment of epilepsy and other neurological disorders (1845-1915).
The text is further enhanced by clinical images and figures.
