内容説明

Many patients referred with epilepsy actually suffer from one of many conditions that can imitate it. Imitators of epilepsy are a diverse group touching many areas of internal medicine, neurology, and psychiatry. The most important are syncope, dizziness and vertigo, complicated migraine, intermittent movement disorders, sleep disorders, transient ischemic attacks, transient global amnesia, endocrine disorders, delirium, psychogenic seizures, hyperventilation episodes, malingering, drop attacks, episodic dyscontrol, and panic attacks. This book emphasizes differential diagnosis: * how do imitators present clinically * what are the distinguishing features of history or bedside examination among the imitators and seizure disorders, and * how may judicious use of laboratory tests contribute to proper diagnosis?
