Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume provides over 25 chapters of expert guidance on the practical uses of electrical and magnetic stimulation of the brain and spinal cord. The book presents a complete examination of the physiologic principles and methodologic issues involved, highlighting diagnostic as well as preventive procedures. Among the topics addressed are electrical stimulation with depth electrodes to evoke seizures; functional mapping of motor-sensory areas; use of subdural grids in functional mapping; motor evoked potentials in diagnosis of neurologic disorders and assessment of cortical reorganisation; magnetic stimulation in neurologic disorders; and the many applications of electrical stimulation for pain control, epilepsy, coma, spasticity, and bladder and sexual functioning.
