Synopsis

Professor Jun Kimura, an internationally renowned and legendary pioneer in electrophysiology, has updated and thoroughly revised Electrodiagnosis in Diseases of Nerve and Muscle: Principles and Practice, the essential textbook considered the gold standard for electromyography (EMG) students and practitioners world-wide.

With the support of Dr. Jeffrey Strakowski after the untimely passing of Prof Kimura, this new edition has removed outdated sections that were too theoretical or otherwise inappropriate for the current clinical practice of electrodiagnosis, updated the references, and improved the clarity of the line tracings throughout. Two long-form video lectures with step-by-step real time demonstration of nerve conduction studies of the upper limb and lower limb conclude this new edition and bring Prof Kimura's penultimate edition to a close.

Neurologists and physiatrists who are interested in neuromuscular disorders and noninvasive electrodiagnostic methods, particularly those practicing electromyography, will find this edition to be a must-have on their shelves for years to come.

He has taught at the University of Manitoba in Canada, University of Iowa in the USA, Kyoto University in Japan, and Tiantan Hospital in China. He has published more than 500 original articles, 70 book chapters and 10 books in neurology and electrophysiology. He has served as President of American Association of Electrodiagnostic Medicine (AAEM), the Japanese Society of Clinical Neurophysiology (JSCN), the Japanese Society of Neurology (JSN), International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN), and the World Federation of Neurology (WFN), and as Editor in Chief of Muscle & Nerve. He held an honorary membership in 22 national societies of neurology and neurophysiology.
