Synopsis

Written by a noted leader in electroneurodiagnostic technology, this book will be a standard text and reference for technologists, neurology residents, and clinical neurophysiology fellows. The first part covers the technical aspects of electroneurodiagnosis, including basic electronics and recording techniques; the second part covers the clinical applications and diagnostic utilities of electroneurodiagnosis for various central nervous system disorders. The text focuses on digital recording and includes analyses based on digital data. Emphasis is on pattern recognition, artifacts recognition, technical pitfalls, and the clinical correlates of electroencephalography. The book includes material to assist students in recognizing specific artifacts. Coverage includes principles of digital recording, electronics and electrical safety. This book will be a valuable aid in preparing for the ABRET (American Board of Registration of Electroencephalographic and Evoked Potential Technologists) certification or the neurophysiology boards. A companion Websitewill include a question bank and a streaming video showing how to place electrodes.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book will replace the old "Tyner EEG" books. Although regarded by many as the Bible for electroneurodiagnostic techs, "Tyner" is very old and does not address new techniques. This new book is authored by Thoru Yamada, the editor of the "American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology" journal, and a regular participant in the preparation of the EEG portion of the neurology boards. Part 1 focuses on technical aspects of electroneurodiagnosis and Part 2 focuses on clinical applications and diagnostic utilities of electroneurodiagnosis for various central nervous system disorders. Difficult concepts are simplified and unnecessary details relating to clinical practice are not included. The text focuses on digital recording and includes analyses based on digital data. This book is written for technologists and students, neurology residents, and clinical neurophysiology fellows. It will assist in preparation for either the ABRET (American Board of Registration of Electroencephalographic & Evoked Potential Technologists) certification or the neurophysiology boards.
